Dear Maintainer,
spoof* keywords (nospoof, spoofalert, spoof) are here from 1996,
they are still valid keywords but do not have any effect apparently,
no libraries or tools use them
it is misleading to see references to resolv+ and rlogin, the keywords
are just ignored these days; the only meaning they have is that they are
allowed by host.conf syntax
