Alas yes, the other subnets (particularly the neighbours) are reserved.
In fact the French ministery decided one day to allocate chunks of
"private" adresses for the 60000 and some users. So I am stuck with
172.21.36.0/22 . I have solved part of the problem making this in
named.conf:

zone "21.172.in-addr.arpa" {
   file "xxx";
   ...
};

And in file xxx :
.=2E.
$ORIGIN 36.21.172.in-addr.arpa.
12    PTR nacre.socio.prv.
6     PTR another.socio.prv.
$ORIGIN 37.21.172.in-addr.arpa.
6     PTR babel.socio.prv.
$ORIGIN 39.21.172.in-addr.arpa.
254    PTR fw4.socio.prv.
.=2E.
It works, though not elegant enough. (my point of view).
Thank for your help
