If anyone has a router to do debugs on, please check this.  The Cisco
documentation says that it only sends out RIP updates on the networks (and
thus, interfaces) indicated as part of router rip, which makes perfect sense
to me.

from
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/np1_c
/1cprt1/1crip.htm
comes
"RIP sends updates to the interfaces in the specified networks. If an
interface's network is not specified, it will not be advertised in any RIP
update."

So, I believe James is correct, based on the documentation.
