Link-state protocols are evil, and when they break, they *really* break.
I still do not see a compeling argument for not using BGP as your IGP.

Slow convergence.

As well there is the issues of running a full iBGP mesh.  I've actually
been doing it, and now that I'm about to add my 5th router, OSPF is
looking a lot better than configuring 4 more BGP sessions.  I've heard
some people recommend a route-reflector, but that would mean if the
route-reflector goes down you're screwed.
