I'll have a stab.....

If you're using routes to the interface (which I guess you must be) rather
than the next hop

(IP ROUTE 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Serial 0)

then I would imagine that the router is not too bothered about the next hop
address, it just shoves the data on the line and the other end will pick it
up. Same both ways, because it's just a point to point link.

Can you get it to actually ping the opposite serial interface? Can't decide
in my head if that should work. I take it if you can, there must be routes
as above?

Haven't got any routers with me to play with.
