I have a /20 block of IP addresses not a 16 and not a 24. How should I
set up the zone file to answer for these if "20.10.in-addr.arpa" as a
zone is a Bad Thing? Do I have any choices other than these two:

--Use "20.10.in-addr.arpa" as a zone as we have before and just accept
that it is a bad thing (use BIND 8.3.3 since 8.4.4 apparently refuses to
work with this, probably because its a bad thing)
--Split the zone file into a bunch of smaller zones:
192.20.10.in-addr.arpa, 193.20.10.in-addr.arpa, 194.20.10.in-addr.arpa,
and so on (a lot of extra work involved)
