Ok.  Assuming that C's transit routers listen to C's internal routing,
then traffic to 1.2.3.4 from A will be directed to C:1.2.3.4, not
D:1.2.3.4 .  This is probably the most-likely case.

If C have Clue++, and have directed their transit routers to _not_ listen
to that specific internal announcement, then traffic from outside of C
will go (as non-C customers expect) to D:1.2.3.4 .

Traffic from C's customers (etc) will always go to C:1.2.3.4 .
