Nothing. The problem is that the arp source IP doesn't fall within the interface netmask at the receiver. Some receivers ignore that... after all, why do they care what the source IP is? They only care about the source MAC. Other receivers see a spoofed packet and drop it.
Why wouldn't it be within the source IP mask? I would imagine local-proxy-arp would work exactly the same way as if a directly connected host with the IP the ARP request was for would have answered.
