On non-broadcast media such as Frame Relay, X.25, ATM, and Switched
Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS), OSPF can run in two modes:

1) Mode NBMA: simulates a broadcast model by electing a designated router
(DR) and a backup designated router (BDR). There are two ways to simulate a
broadcast model on an NBMA network:
        1.1 define the network type as broadcast with the ip ospf network
broadcast interface sub-command or
        1.2 configure the neighbor statements using the router ospf command.

2) Mode: Point-to-mutipoint: treats non-broadcast network as a collection of
point-to-point links.
You must define the network type on non-broadcast networks to avoid
configuring neighbor statements. Below are sample configurations for OSPF
over non-broadcast links. Use the show ip ospf <interface> command to check
the network type of an interface running OSPF.

Maybe not a bug:

On the remote sides turn off the split horizon give a try.

Thanks,
