I'm going to attempt to address those with Microsoft. At a previous employer handing out addresses ending in .0 or .255 out of a netblock in "traditional class C space" to dialup customers often caused problems for them. I don't know whether that was due to the equipment used (Cisco AS5300/AS5800) or to the clients (Windows 98 and similar ilk); I suspect the latter, though, although the former had their own set of problems...
