Right.  So BGP needs to be full meshed also for this to work right?

It does - although the physical topology looks like a ring, remember that it 
will be all L3 P2P links, with the VPLS overlay sitting over the top on 
fully-meshed LSPs making it look more like:

MX1-------MX2
 | \      /|
 |  \    / |
 |   \  /  |
 |    \/   |
 |    /\   |
 |   /  \  |
 |  /    \ |
 | /      \|
MX3-------MX4

(switch to fixed-width fonts ; )

Split-horizon will take care of the rest.
