This looks like a summary issue to me. You should see a RIP advertisement for 172.16.1.0, not 0.0. Of note, the classless and classful behavior are not entirely related to whether or not an update includes the prefix length. Make sure you have ip classless enabled and I would try turning off auto-summary to see if you end up with more appropriate announcements. Of note, with the same prefix length used in your RIP network you shouldn't see any issues with V1 routing. With ip classless off however, you should bump into some issue.
