As a potentially cautionary tale for the squatting on unused pieces of
address space either in your network or applications.

drive slow (and filter 22 outgoing to 49.48.46.49 until you get new
firmware)

(HP Blades apparently depended on rDNS for 49.48/16 failing hard, which 
stopped happening when the block was allocated)

Hey, isn't this what I was talking about a week or two ago: applications
depending on DNS not lying to them about whether things actually exist or
not?  (Ok, it's a *bit* sideways, but not much...)
