It's true. Looking at current NM src/nm-device.c line 1978:
static guint32
reserve_shared_ip (void)
{
guint32 start = (guint32) ntohl (0x0a2a0001); /* 10.42.0.1 */
guint32 count = 0;

Title:
DHCP settings for network manager shared connection are hard-coded
source, should be editable
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
1) Ubuntu 10.04, but it's in all versions.
2) any version of network manager
3) I want to be able to change the DHCP settings for a shared network
connection
4) YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM WON'T LET ME!
The file nm-device.c contains this line:
nm-device.c: guint32 start = (guint32) ntohl (0x0a2a2b01); /*
10.42.43.1 */
hard-coding DHCP settings that should obviously be editable by the
user is a TERRIBLE IDEA. PLEASE FIX.
