No.  The director kernel will still drop these packets as the have a
source address matching a local interface.  They're known as martians.

Julian Anastasov <uli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote a patch which
disables this feature when packet spoofing is diabled.  If you can't
find it in the list archives (are there list archives, anyone?), let
me know & I'll see what I did with it.
