Yeah, it showed all 4 routes as exported.

The only thing else I could think of was there was a level 2 smart switch between the two routers (mine and theirs).  I wouldn't think that would make any effect, as the machines could ping each other fine and establish a session fine.

If you do 

show proto <name of bgp proto> all

does it show in the Routes: line any exported routes?
