The private /25 prefixes uses private IP addresses? There was a change in BIRD
that interface with more IP addresses works like more virtual interfaces with
regard to OSPF, but it should not cause problems and it was earlier change
(~ 1.2.0).

It is strange that reported netmask is /31, but you said that it uses
212.71.191.77/30 . Could you send me output of 'show ospf interface'?
