When you get further down that thread you'll notice my quoting a RFC on the
subject (42 isn't enough for the RFC IIRC). A suggestion would be to use
pointers to the far memory, but it may (as Eko pointed out) be too slow. On
the other hand the chance of encountering such a large domain name again is
very small IMHO.
