Well, I'd expect Linux and OSX to do the right thing. It just seems to be Windows that makes a complete sow's ear of it.
If you want to have some real fun, try configuring some class E addresses. Windows of course won't have it, and Cisco also doesn't want anything to do with it, even to the point of rejecting routes within 240.0.0.0/4 when they come in over BGP. (Which an MacOSX box running Zebra will happily provide.)
