Links and loopbacks => IGP
Why on earth does you want your link addresses in your IGP ?
Sometimes it cannot be avoided, due to bad implementation, but why do you need it ?
Routers that learn a route over IBGP need to know where the next hop address for route from other AS points to. Since this can't be a loopback address and you typically don't run an IGP on subnets between border routers in your AS and a remote AS, you need to either set next-hop-self on all IBGP sessions or redistribute connected in your IGP.
