Yes, it would seem that some later RFC's change the syntax of 952
(1101 for example) but the RFC was never actually obsoleted or listed
as being altered like other RFC's. Also the 1101 talks about leading
characters in Domain Names but does not mention the Hostname so its
not clear on my first reading if 3com.3com.com is legal (3com.com is
legal of course.)
