Classless in-addr.arpa delegation

Hi
There is at least one operating system, where this method described in
draft-degroot-classless-inaddr-00.txt, and supposed by RIPE, does not
work. It is FreeBSD. Their resolver libarary cannot handle CNAME answers
for PTR queries. In their case you just see on console something like:
Feb 7 16:53:00 cache traceroute: gethostby*.gethostanswer: asked for
"177.96.40.193.in-addr.arpa", got "177.128.96.40.193.in-addr.arpa"
Regards,
ANdres
