>  bgread: received a 98 bytes packet from 172.16.23.2, decoded 87 bytes

Additional information to avoid misleading anyone in the future who finds this:

First, the bug in Net::DNS is fixed in version 1.41

Second, the bgread warning has nothing to do with the bug in Net::DNS. The test
I ran was on Windows 10 and 11 virtual machines run by VMWare Fusion hosted on
MacOS, with NAT networking. The "172.16.23.2" ip address in the warning message
is the default DNS server for the Windows network configuration, which in this
case is the same as the network gateway address. If the default nameserver is
set to some good external nameserver, the warnings go away. I changed the
networking setting in the VMWare Fusion VM from NAT to Bridged, which changed
the default DNS server to be the same as my Mac uses, and the warnings went
away.

I don't think that the network configuration that fails is likely in any real
installation, so I won't open another bug to address this behavior.
