Default Master cylinder from single piston brake car on 4-piston car?

Recently the brake master cylinder on my FC (5-lug, 4-piston front brakes) went out. I was in the middle of replacing it with the master cylinder from my other FC (4-lug, single-piston front brake car), when I remembered that people often recommend swapping master cylinders when doing 4-to-5-lug swaps, indicating that the master cylinders may be different.

Will I be okay running a single-piston brake MC on a 4-piston brake system? I'm not really concerned with optimal performance, since the car is a beater anyway, but will it work safely?
