Hmm, since I don't have the PR I don't know which version fixes the
problem, but IIRC we went from 5.1R2.4 to 5.2R1.4 to get the fix. That's a
confusing enough set of numbers that I could have one wrong ;)

You wouldn't have any problems, but it could be an issue if the Juniper
has a v4 multicast session with another Cisco at the exchange and they're
on an old IOS. Again this is only my recollection but I think the Cisco
bug was fixed almost a year ago, so if they've upgraded to get the various
security fixes since then they should all be safe.
