I haven't tried compiling and testing the code either, but cursory code 
inspection seems to indicate that it goes into great lengths to 
recognize which RFC1918 block the query concerns and has nothing that 
could handle queries outside the in-addr.arpa branch. So it doesn't even 
handle IPv6 bogons let alone anything else.

In fact, if I understood the server port parameters correctly, it 
doesn't even bind sockets on IPv6.

So ... has anyone else been working on omniscient AS112 code?

Yours,
