Yeah.

You can stop them from being suppressed inbound by using "neigh x.x.x.x 
allowas-in" on a cisco, or "set neigh x.x.x.x allowas-in" on JunOS.

I don't know. Above seems reasonable. I've seen people join their sites with 
tunnels plumbed to router loopbacks in different sites and run IGPs over them 
before; this gives them inter-site connectivity which makes the question moot. 
But it involves tunnels.
