OK, so the MFC looks sane. can you double check these if indexes are 
sane with 'show interfaces' ? Generally the vif indexes should be the 
same as for physical interfaces, however this is not guaranteed.

Do you have any IGMP snooping switches?

Suggest strongly picking up a copy of 'Interdomain Multicast Routing', 
it explains how PIM and IGMP work in great detail.

I have to run. Please Cc: xorp traffic to the lists, I can't respond to 
support requests personally. Thanks.
