There is some bitwise support in 4.21, but it doesn't do quite what you
want, unfortunately.

dnslist = rbl.example&127.0.0.0

it true if all the bits in the mask are present in the address. This
scheme was devised for testing least significant bits used as bit masks
(as in the rbl-plus list).

Negation is also available (and should work with '&' as well as with
'='.) You could try something like

dnslist = rbl.example!&0.0.0.16,0.0.0.32,0.0.0.64,0.0.0.128

Without the !, that tests for any one of those four bits being set. With
the ! it negates the entire test, so I think it does what you want, and
ensures that the last component of the address is in the range 0-31.
