No.  It would likely get confused
during situations with multiple proxies
when the last did not record-route. 

For matching ACK to response,
the ACK's via is typically only useful 
during transaction matching associated 
with having sent a 2xx and negative 
responses for INVITE's with same CSeq 
within an already established dialog.
In such situations, the top via for the
negative responses will match the
corresponding ACK's via.  By default,
the ACK with the non matching via 
corresponds to the 2xx in such situations.
Such actions are potentially broken
with older proxies; however it should
work for RFC 3261 proxies.
