yes, that's a bit old.  no problem giving a full table to 942 peers who
all use the same asn.  2270 was written before the "ignore my as in
path" hacks by all vendors.

no problem.  use 2270+ignore-my-asn-hack

this all works.  this is all widely used.  we do not need more
cleverness.  we do not need to end-run the rirs (we need to abolish
them, but that's a whole other discussion in another venue)
