Right.

>From looking at BGP view before and after an router running MRTd. The
AS in question annonced a path like "AS-guilty AS-other
some-long-path", while AS-other has a different path for the prefix in
question. I saw this for the same AS-guilty and different AS-others.

Right, but that's not an acceptable long-term solution. IMHO either
AS-guilty fixes the problem, or their peers have to fix it for them.
