Maybe the problem is related to the "fancy bits in fqdn option"
statement. Looking at the source it seems this means the FQDN option is
malformed somehow.

A cursory look at our logs reveal no hosts with the problem you
describe. We have a similar "on commit" log statement.

Is it one specific client? Can you look at the packets on wire?
