ospf doesn't, for router-id on cisco's atleast, as Warren pointed out :( however! switching from ospf to 'another igp' (ISIS would work well) would avoid that, slide off ospf and onto ISIS, kill ospf when all next-hops switch, which should be 'as soon as isis converges'.
It is a good reason to assign seperate router IDs, rather than rely on the OSPF implementation to decide which IP is the one it will use. Of course not all vendors support this. The major router vendors do, though. -Sean
