nsd serving localhost

Hi,

I just installed nsd 1.2.2, and found that it choked on the following 
zone file when parsing it as an IPv6 zone file, complaining about 
out-of-zone data on line 2:

@               IN      SOA     ns.oryx.com. hostmaster.oryx.com. (
                 2003091600 10800 3600 2592000 86400 )

1               IN      PTR     localhost.

Using it only under IPv4 worked. What I'm now using is this:

zone    0.0.127.in-addr.arpa    p/localhost-reverse
;zone   
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.int  
p/localhost-reverse
;zone   
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa 
p/localhost-reverse

A bug, or have I miscounted the zeroes or something?

The thing also choked on my lovely IN ISDN RRs. I fixed that by deleting 
them. Perhaps the set of supported RRs should be specified in the man 
page.

Overall, looks great.
