ippool seems to be consistent about the IP addresses that it's giving out

  I think it's the way the module works, but it could allocate
addresses by "last used".  i.e. Don't re-use an address until every
other address has been re-used.

  Also, it *should* try to give a particular MAC address (if it has
the MAC) the same address, where possible.
