Ah, right.  In config language, you can use a domain name
that does the lookup for you.

If you can:

	gdb dhcpd dhcpd.core
	...
	(gdb) where

And send the output to dhcp-bugs at isc.org (along with a reminder
of how you got it to do that), that would be good.

If you can fit it into any of the standing manpages or create an
omapi-examples or somesuch, the best thing would be a diff against
3.1.0...just mail it to dhcp-suggest at isc.org.

If you can't, the next best thing might be a document we can
put under doc/, which would have to have the same license as
the base software package.

If that's not workable, we can throw whatever you have under
contrib/.

If that's still too much hassle, one of the dhcp-users has put
up a Wiki.  I think we link to it off DHCP's page at isc.org.
