Since IANA says that the ASN is ARIN's to assign wouldn't that preclude 
another RIR from assigning it?

http://www.iana.org/assignments/as-numbers/

Of course if it was already assigned when IANA said that (no dates on 
the link above) then maybe the fault is more IANA's for telling another 
RIR that they could allocate an ASN that another RIR already allocated. 
 Who knows.  It should be an interesting one to watch play out though.
