Why is a neighbour as ospf peer reachable, but as router unreachable?

Hello,

is there something special to configure, for bird ospf knowns, which IP
addresses belong to the one neighbour router?

I have bird in ospf area 2. The ospf peer is in area 2 and in area 0.
bird ospf learns all prefixes and routes from that peer and shows them
in its lsadb. However, it copies no routes to the kernel routing table.

I assume, bird does not understand, that this peer is the gateway.

Can someone please have a look at the "topology" output and give me a
hint about the "unreachable" notices!
93.189.172.3 is the ospf id of the peer, according to its IP address in
area 0.
93.189.172.85 is birds IP address. The peer has .86 in that network.

Regards,
Roger.
