dnsmasq got set up behind my back on F8; I've been using dhcpd and bind 
for donkey's years, and plan on continuing to do so.

It gets used by the virtualisation infrastructure, and while it keeps 
out of my way I plan on keeping out of its.

Investigation shows it's only listening on virbr0; it should be keeping 
out of the way of BIND (but if bind defaults to listening to all 
addresses, and I think it does, then it could get in the way of dnsmasq).
