​It will work if you 'help' bird to know the source address to use (source
address) into the BGP protocol.
Here is the extract of my bird BGP configuration file (no setkey.conf
needed):

protocol bgp R4inet4 {
        local as myas;
        # Bird creates IPSEC SAD entry automatically but it need to
know the source IP address
        # Otherwise it will use the wrong 0.0.0.0 IP as source
        source address 10.0.2.3;
        neighbor 10.0.2.4 as 200;
        password "abigpassword";
        ipv4 {
            import all;
            export all;
            next hop self;
        };
}

Regards,

Olivier
