[nsp] 127.0.0.0/8 unroutable?

[Hank Nussbacher]

IOS 12.0(25)S2:

ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 FastEthernet1/0/0
ip route 127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 FastEthernet1/0/0

TAU-gp1#sho ip rou 127.0.0.0
% Network not in table
TAU-gp1#sho ip rou 10.0.0.0
Routing entry for 10.0.0.0/8
   Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0 (connected)
   Redistributing via ospf 378
   Routing Descriptor Blocks:
   * directly connected, via FastEthernet1/0/0

Something magical that 127.0.0.0/8 can't be statically routed?
