I spoke with Jay off-list about this, and thought there might be a clever way of doing this with a logical-tunnel, with the MPLS-CCC tunnel ending on a logical tunnel interface, then hooking that into a regular logical interface with an inet address for BGP peering. As I've not used logical-tunnels yet, I wasn't able to furnish him with further details. Might someone else be able to offer suggestions?
