There's OpenBGPd from the OpenBSD folks.  I don't know how well it works
on NetBSD, but on FreeBSD it has been a pleasure.

Even if the syntax is quite different from the "cisco style" quagga
CLI, the overall time needed to make it do what I want was far less - and
quagga has a long history of crash bugs that makes me dislike it.
