    PS: Now that I think about it, maybe a better approach is to look for
	an alias that not only has a "." but additionally has the hostname
	as prefix.  This is what my second patch does.  Both patches are
	guaranteed 100% untested.

This patch does seem likely to be really right, but it has the potential
to cause problems in peculiar cases.  For now, please install your limited
patch that rejects just localhost.localdomain.

After the release, please install the newer "more correct" patch.
