i.e. "advertised" not "advertised and received".

So as far as your router is concerned, this session is *not*
using 4-byte ASN, but it would appear that their side thinks it is.
I don't see any problems with the code in -current for this
negotiation, the relevant code was changed in rde.c 1.276 but
the old code also looks correct.

It would be interesting to know what version of bgpd code they
are running (and whether they have made any changes to it)...
