How hard is it to type:
"show ip bgp neighbor N.N.N.N advertised-routes" 
...and verify that you're not leaking crap like that whenever you make a
change?  Isn't that one of the questions on the Clue++ exam?

in this case, i suspect the sequence was
  o customer asks to have prefix length filter lengthened
  o change is made
  o routing is checked and looks ok
  o engineer goes on holiday
  o days later, customer's customer starts to leak garbage

imiho, so much for relaxing route filters
