MPLS BGP problem

I have a working MPLS network but when a new VRF is added one router
refuses to install the default received from an Ebgp peer.

Below is the simple part if the VRF config

ip vrf test

 rd 60000:1009

 route-target export 60000:1009

 route-target import 60000:1009

router bgp 60000

neighbor etc etc

address-family ipv4 vrf test

 neighbor 10.238.165.125 remote-as 60000

 neighbor 10.238.165.125 version 4

 neighbor 10.238.165.125 activate

 neighbor 10.238.165.125 send-community

 no auto-summary

 no synchronization

 exit-address-family

routes in the vrf look fine

But no default route installed.

I can force a route to be advertised as I have done with 1.1.1.1 using a
null route.

Is the default route not being installed due to the cef drop or
something else?

Driving me nuts everything works but not a default route.
