Breaks with classless reverse DNS delegation. See RFC2317.

OOI is Exim going to successfully look up reverse DNS of the form

 Z.Y.X.W.in-addr.arpa        IN CNAME Z.0/25.Y.X.W.in-addr.arpa
 Z.0/25.Y.X.W.in-addr.arpa    IN PTR somehost.example.com.


Would the default dns_check_names_pattern prohibit successful lookup of
the CNAME target above, or is it not applied to interim results?
