Bad.  For some systems, such tricks work to some degree only due to
lack of input validation, and you get failures down the road (ARP
ceases to work, packet filters are not applied properly and other
fun).

I never had any problems using Cisco to Cisco, Linux to Linux or Cisco
to Linux using /31. Only problem I encountered was when a Linux based
router was replaced by a Windows box (please don't ask).
