Unfortunately even the high-order bits are too predictable:

10.0.0.128	0xbd78b1f2
10.0.0.64	0xfd78b1f2
10.0.0.192	0x7d78b1f2
10.0.0.32	0x9d78b1f2
...
10.0.0.63	0xd078b1f2
10.0.0.191	0x5078b1f2
10.0.0.127	0x9078b1f2
10.0.0.255	0x1078b1f2
10.0.1.0	0x60bdb1f2

As you can see there is a bit-to-bit correspondence.
