Using this command for OSPF causes an OSPF autonomous
system boundary router (ASBR) to advertise one external route as an aggregate
for all redistributed routes that are covered by the address. For OSPF, this
command summarizes only routes from other routing protocols that are being
redistributed into OSPF. Use the area range command for route summarization bet
ween
OSPF areas.
END <SNIP>

I'm not taking any sides here since I've never tried it, just stating what's in
 the
12.0 config guide.

Sorry to be obstinate, but as anyone who has completed Geotrain's [now
Global Knowledge] ANEW1 will tell you, the summary addresses DO work when
redistributing OSPF into IGRP. This is [one of the things] they are
designed to do. At least under 11.2(15).

As you correctly assert, summary addresses can ALSO be used to summarize
INTO ospf at an ASBR.

I know of AT LEAST 2 CCIEs on this list that can confirm this for you.....
