Okay, thanks for the prompt response. We were looking for a convenient
way to use multiple source and destination addresses with dns views,
but we can just explicitly configure all the IPs that we're going to
use.

Out of interest, how do other services get round this? For example I
notice that ntpd is listening on IPv4 0.0.0.0:123; doesn't it have the
same issue?
