That doesn't matter. It's a valid use case, so someone could use it now or in the future for his nodelist entry. So software using the nodelist should be able to handle it.
I did a grep. There currently are a few nodes that have more then one IBN:<fqdn> entry, but not multiple mixed Ixx:<fqdn> flags.
