I dont know if that situation would ever really arise. If you were IMC then the controller can only clear you to his MVA (Minimum vector altitude) which will give you 1000ft obstacle clearance. Otherwise he would have to say descend 2000ft visual, in which case you would be VMC and responsible for maintaining your own obstacle clearance, and no I wouldn't clear the obstacle by 200ft!
