I know for certain it was gblx, noc confirmed, we saw this to multiple 
destinations all with the outbound towards gblx (not just DFN).   We are on the 
same GBLX pop the sites they are talking about are connected to (westin) and 
almost every path I see back to dfn (from seven upstreams in seattle) was via 
gblx not qwest, the only exceptions were level3's and Savvis' routes which are 
via AS1299.

I think the asymmetric routing was obfuscating the problem a bit for the guys 
attached to DFN.

It seemed from the symptoms OP was seeing, that Qwest was the issue.
Has GLBX reported to you that they are having a fault? If not, perhaps
try tagging your exported routes to GLBX with 8010 as per this:
