The only problem here is that this isn't a solution for providing routing

Why?

Its current provider was able to add it to their AS, too so it shouldn't be
that much of a problem in Australia. I remember my ISP (QSC Germany) being a
bit too... unexperienced at first so they sent me on to one of their
resellers (who knew how to configure BGP) and they warned me that they
wouldn't accept anything less than a /22 but things might be a bit different
on the wrong side of the planet.
I'd just get the defunct rev-srv records out of the database entry and send
an update for the ownership records.
In general ISPs are now very reluctant do less than a /22 or larget if
it's not carved out of one of their blocks. It was a fair amount of
hunting around in Menlo Park for me to find somebody to route FERAL.COM,
and the big home serving ISPs like Sprint and Yahoo!/SBC were completely
clueless about being asked if they would do so- even for a fee.
