  Log:
  Change host-name from type "X" to type "t".  This allows the client to
  accept NUL-terminated strings as required by RFC 2132.
  
  This solution is not perfect as it removes the ability to send
  NUL-terminated host-name options which may be required by some broken
  servers.  Given the current lack of an existance proof of such servers
  and the fact that servers that send NUL-terminated domain names do
  exist, this seems like an acceptable compromise.  A discussion of these
  issues can be found at:
