AFAIK there are few streaming servers that support multicast. Icecast isn't one of them. There are also almost no players that support it either. Listeners would also require access to the MBONE which alot of ISPs don't provide. It would also require alot of work to make icecast support it.

In short, it's not supported because there's not much demand or point at the current time.
