This is how I understood Wendy - and this makes this attack quite easy
to mitigate for us.  Actually, we don't need to mitigate anything on
all-but-two routers, as those have only a single tunnel with a destination
address that's inside our network, and a source address coming from a 
well-known block.

Infrastructure ACLs at the edge prevent packets to that destination
address, and anti-spoofing iACLs prevent packets with a source address
that would match the "tunnel destination".

Customer interfaces ALL have uRPF configured, so there is no way a packet
with a matching source address can enter our network.  Case closed.
