Thats crazy!  It's wrong since 1/8 is now allocated, it also does not
detect most other bogon ranges, What is the point of this...
Another rule I now need to disable.

Please open a bug...

Thanks for logging that.

I do think we need a better way to catch them, including the other
20 or so plus bogon ranges it currently ignores. I can see where DNS checks would be better suited (bogons.cymru.com), or, at the very least,
a ruleset, which can be updated in the "daily updates run" when new
ranges are allocated.
