Looking for 32-bit AS numbers, I get some strange results from routeviews:

Unless I missed something, AS 23456 is supposed to show up as a stand-in for 32-bit ASNs on 16-bit BGP implementations, not in _addition_ to 32-bit ASNs. So the penultimate line would make sense if the other lines weren't there and the others don't make sense period.
Maybe a bug in the IOS they're running?
route-views>sh ver Cisco IOS Software, 7200 Software (C7200P-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 12.4(24)T2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)
Or is something else going on?
Off topic, this reminds me I would rather have ASPLAIN again. We switched a couple of years ago on a particular user request. If there is no objection, I would love to switch back ASAP. This would be on route-views, and on route-views3.
