And it is, of course, indicative of fundamental braindamage
somewhere. Given full control over all involved hosts, you *never*
need to do this; that's built in to the design of the internet. It'll
only be necessary when somebody has misconfigured something and you
can't get it fixed.

For those people who think they need this but have control over all
the hosts involved, you should probably be looking at doing something
with DNS instead (much like FAQ 2). Might be worth adding that to this
new entry.
