doubt it's a bug.
make sure you can do extended pings from both routers using the loopback
add to the others loopback address.
then make sure that when you specify a neighbor that you use the loopback
address like this
router bgp XX
neighbor (their loopback address) remote-as XX
neighbor (their loopback address) update-source loopbackX
