There was recently a discussion in de.comp.os.linux.networking (in german) about this topic. It seems that the code in netstat (or was it route) assumes a network address to have the last of the four byte set to zero (which is a wrong assumption with your netmask). I don't know if a patch is already available. Maybe we should ask the author about this.
