Seems relevant.
Any word from vendors on supporting images? I found some old presentations that said Juniper (ERX) and Redback had announced supporting images and Cisco had an unannounced version, but thats all.
http://www.potaroo.net/drafts/draft-huston-idr-as4bytes-survey-00.txt has some relevant info, although that draft is a year or so old now.
Last time I spoke to them, the Juniper and Cisco versions only ran on
a subset of their routers.  Their claim was that almost nobody had
asked for this so it doesn't have any priority.

For those using software routers: there is an unannounced patch for
Quagga that supports this.
