On the Cisco that you said was mixing rip with OSPF ... that should only happen if you purposely have a 'redistribute' statement in your router OSPF {pid} stanza. I have never seen IOS redistribute without that. If you need to run both rip and OSPF, you certainly want rip2 to handle the VLSM issue.
