FYI, I added this to my MySQL config, been running it live for a few days,
works fine in my setup.  I think this is the right way to go, making it the
default, as the "certain circumstances" would tend to be the exception
rather than the rule.

I've also tested that "accounting on/off" change we discussed off-list, and
it now correctly frees all relevant IP's after a NAS reboot.
