The -bugs lists don't appear to have archives.

As I've said previously, I'd rather not make the downstream DHCP package
deviate significantly in behaviour from the upstream software. I don't
particularly like having magical strings that are interpretted differently
to literal strings. I'd rather see it be a directive than a magical string
that gets special treatment. According to upstream, their config parser
can't cope with that concept though.

Not sure, I haven't looked. Why don't you and let me know?

I suggest you lobby upstream to implement the functionality, as I have been.
