H A Dtables.cdiff 148411 Mon Jul 25 20:19:09 MDT 2005 brooks Change host-name from type "X" to type "t". This allows the client to
accept NUL-terminated strings as required by RFC 2132.

This solution is not perfect as it removes the ability to send
NUL-terminated host-name options which may be required by some broken
servers. Given the current lack of an existance proof of such servers
and the fact that servers that send NUL-terminated domain names do
exist, this seems like an acceptable compromise. A discussion of these
issues can be found at:
