This rule should not exist for IPv4 or IPv6. Longest match
does not make a good sorting critera for destination address
selection. In fact it has the opposite effect by concentrating
traffic on particular address rather than spreading load.
I received a request today asking us to break up DNS RRsets
as a workaround to the rule. Can we please get a errata
entry for RFC 3484 stating that this rule needs to be ignored.
