By commenting out the #ifdef block which includes line 249, the
segfault is prevented at the expense of some debug output. I was
able to write a dhcpd.conf file that boots the iMac G5, but
'vendor-option-space' isn't working as I had hoped (see the
dhcpd.conf file at the above URL in the 'test2.d' directory).
Is the 'option space' facility only for encapsulated options?
