An alternative is to just have link-local addresses on your point-to-
point links.  At least on your internal links where you run your IGP.
On external links, where you run eBGP or static routes, it's probably
more trouble than it is worth, though, since link-local addresses can
change if you replace the hardware, requiring a config change on the
other end.  (Also, I'm not sure all BGP implementations support using
link-local addresses.)
