Subject: Add to BUGS section on UDP replies from Net::DNS::Nameserver
Limitations in perl 5.8.6 makes it impossible to guarantee that replies to UDP queries from Net::DNS::Nameserver are sent from the IP-address they were received on. The perl manual entry for "send" says; "The C system call sendmsg(2) is currently unimplemented." This is a problem for machines with multiple IP-addresses. It would be nice to have in the BUGS section of the man-page.

I've added : +Limitations in perl 5.8.6 makes it impossible to guarantee that +replies to UDP queries from Net::DNS::Nameserver are sent from the +IP-address they were received on. This is a problem for machines with +multiple IP-addresses and causes violation of RFC2181 section 4. It's been added to the subversion trunk. This is Robert Martin-Legène who reported this isn[t it? (How are you doing :-) ).
