icmp_rejectcodemask and T64U 5.1A

We are in the process of installing some 5.1A servers, and we're wondering
if we should continue our (previously) standard practice of resetting the
rejectcodemask flag in the T64U kernel to prevent ICMP redirects. Is this
still an issue in 5.1A, or should we drop this step in the byukd process?
One example of this flag's use is given in the URL below:

Thanks in advance--this list rules.
