I don't know anything about IPXWAN but maybe can help with the local preference thing. It boils down to administrative distance, which is the first thing examined. EBGP is 20, while IBGP is 200. So the router never gets to a point of looking at attributes such as local preference before tossing the IBGP route and keeping the EBGP route. The logic behind that, I think, is to keep packets from bouncing around inside of an AS before leaving - if the destination is external, just get on with it and get it out of here.
