I cannot agree more with this. If you want PMTU use non-private space, there is enough really :) And saving a /24 by renumbering your core into RFC 1918 won't save you from the coming run out.
I once suggested something along the lines of: interface Loopback0 ip address 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.255 interface GigabitEthernet0/0 ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 icmp errors-from Loopback0 But I was yelled at for trying to break traceroute.
