What specific reason is there that that won't work?

Isn't it just a minor variation of what is already going
on here:

em0 (internal network):
        inet 172.24.42.254 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.24.42.255
em1 (internet):
        inet 172.24.40.3 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 172.24.43.255

where the internal network is a subnet of the external network?

Isn't the routing based on the more specific netmask?
