Brad,
As with all LVS things subject to argument...but
On all platforms apart from windows you want 255.255.255.255 for the
loopback i.e. never use.
On windows you can get away with 255.255.255.0 IF you use a priority 254
80% of the time.
255.255.255.255 can be used if you mod the registry...
But we've found that 255.0.0.0 will work better 99% of the time because
windows by default uses the smallest subnet first for routing
and a class A will never be used instead of a class C.

255.255.255.0 does the loopback interface on the real sever need to be
255.255.255.0 or 255.255.255.255? I've seen it documented both ways.
Thanks.
