Yep.

I don't think it's at all what Ben "wants", but I think it's the closest 
thing to it that's actually available, relatively simple to configure, and 
accomplishes the desired savings.

For anyone in need of such savings, I recommned you start with one RIR at 
a time and carry a default route, because you're going to lose some 
networks.  If you want to be somewhat charitable, bump the limits up 1-bit 
and filter on RIR minimums + 1.
