Thats the position I find myself in, hosting/specialized ISP, who needs a large enough independent block to be fully routable and multi-homed.... but don't have a /19 or mores worth of hosts yet... Seems the standard answer for what to do in this situation is "tell the internic (now arin?) what you have to then, even if its partially lies, to get the block and AS number".....
This isn't a network numbering problem, it's a routing problem.
Precisely, its only a numbering problem in the sense of how that affects routing/routablility....at least in my case... -David Mercer infiNETways, Inc. Tucson, AZ
