They are not bogus, hence the sub-deligation, and hence a good reason to have a more detailed source of information. I would suspect that this block should be "chopped" a bit to reflect the IANA/ICANN usage. This block was first routed on the internet via AS 226 around late summer early fall 1999.

Some of the IANA-RESERVED block is actually valid and is used by IANA's computers. My company was blocking all of the IANA-RESERVED space for a while, until we discovered that the IANA web server is using an address in that space.
