I have used that kind of setup on AIX and NT machines before (overlapping
netblocks, I can't help on the ARP issues).  The most specific route is
supposed to be seleted.  I would be really disapointed if Linux didn't
support it.  From RFC 1812, it looks like it should be supported too :
section 2.2.5.2 Classless Inter Domain Routing (CIDR).

They talk about continuous 1 bits tough, to find what route is most
specific.  I'd be using the _total_ number of 1 bits, allowing holes
in the netmask.  But that's just me.
