Being 100% correct protocol-wise means nothing, if the software can't
fit well into an environment. Just a recent example off the top of my
head: dnscache. Its security and DNS protocol support are astonishing.
But due to it being unable to work reasonably under certain
circumstances, and due to its author preferring to stick with the
arguable RFC specification which is outright buggy, I was forced to go
back to BIND. In reply to my post Jeremy Kister was kind enough to
describe the problem very well:
