... if you have redistribution from BGP to OSPF, then you are very
much advertising loopbacks in OSPF, unless you were filtering. If you
were filtering, then you probably had an entirely different MPLS
transport issue, which only manifested itself by sham-links not coming
up.

There's nothing really difficult with sham-links, if you follow the
steps for configuration.
