I've got some further information.  If I look for a specific address, it 
seems to work:

root@base0-0-0-5-0-11-1:/root> ip neigh show 172.24.136.0
172.24.136.0 dev bond0 lladdr 00:c0:8b:07:b3:7e REACHABLE


In the above scenario, the arp cache lists the device as reachable via 
bond0.  If I search the arp cache to see whether the address is 
reachable from one of bond0's slave devices, should it come back 
positive or negative?
