I think Nigel is right. 150.150.150.0 never was in the IGP. Since that is
so, then there can never be synchronization.
Also, notice RTC and RTE are the only routers sharing a sub-as and thus
relying on IBGP within the sub-as. All routers connected via EBGP will of
course
have no sync problems.

I do not think next-hop will resolve any of these issues however. It does
not address the lack of the 150 route in the routing able.
