Hi Jonas--

Thanks for the report. If I recall correctly, "allow_missing_dns no"
overrides "allow" entires (despite the "passed through with no checks"
in the man page, I probably miswrote there) -- the DNS check comes
first. I'll take a look and at very least update the documentation, but
I do think it makes sense to let "allow" skip the DNS checks if it's
numeric.

In the meantime, try "allow_missing_dns yes" and "allow_missing_reverse
yes" if you feel comfortable with the security/attribution implications.

Note that the chance of upstream changes showing up in Ubuntu is quite
low; I finally orphaned the package in Debian since it would take months
and, sometimes, years to get a sponsor for the upload.
