I seem to recall that the Administrative Distance of static routes that specify a local interface has differed between 0 and 1 depending on IOS version. I have a hand written note that (I think) says the value is 0 for 11.3 and 12.0; but is now 1 for newer IOS versions. If true, your results will depend on which IOS your routers are running. I'd appreciate comments for those who have more specific info. I'll see if I can find time to experiment.
