Or you could look at alternatives with your provider, ie:
"Ok, so we can't speak BGP over that particular link. May I colocate some
router with you at extra cost and connect to you via -that-, so I may then
speak BGP to you over that and then tunnel my data back to me over your
DSL network?"
That way you don't require your ISP to speak BGP over a DSL link and all
of the headaches they may not be prepared for, and you get control over
your own network.
