I poked some more and the LACNIC server says it is unallocated.  That 
was the most straightforward answer of the bunch.

It's an interesting exercise to see what the 5 RIRs return and what 
IANA doesn't. ;)

ARIN - "no records found"
APNIC - ' 172.0.0.0 is not allocated to APNIC' but lists CC of AU
AFRINIC - '0/0', CC of EU
LACNIC - "unallocated"
RIPE - pretty much the same answer as AfriNIC
IANA - doesn't query for numbers

Didn't see a WhoIs box on the NRO site.

If you knew what I was thinking, you'd understand what I was saying.
