Doesn't this break MTU path discovery though?
No, it wouldn't. Those addresses are not routable on the global 'Net, however, there is nothing stopping a device with an RFC1918 address from sending a packet onto the 'Net.
Except that many people filter out RFC 1918 at ingress, in the same ACL that blocks spoofing of your own blocks. (although if you see it in a traceroute you know that's not happening) -- Shields, CrossLink.
