Please, save your time, forget this idea.
Apparently, IGRP is NOT "lovely" Cisco protocol, Ciscos are shipped out
with the most conservative default configuration: no CIDR,
IGRP etc. etc. It did not change since the earliest IOS versions and
it is easy to understand why: Cisco configuration is pretty difficult
task for network admins who do not want to learn new things.

Just reconfigure your Ciscos to use OSPF - really native IOS language.
