Sorry, I had sent a response to Pablo's request but forgot to hit
Reply-to-All. :-( Strangely Thunderbird did not show the message in
sent-mail at the time but it's there now, I'll repost it for the archives.

Correct. And what I had noticed is that a file with mixed static (or
anon you call it?) sets (the ones with a $-prefixed name that as far as
I can tell can not be modified later and are expanded at parsing time)
is accepted if the sets are not used. Just none of the matches are very
happy with it since there's no multi-datatype matcher?

In the other message I have a workaround suggestion that would allow for
the mixed set in the file and just IPv4- and IPv6-specific references to
it. How reasonable would that be?


Kind regards,
