The reverse addresses all seem to point to the *.freebsd.org hosts and the
*.freebsd.net and *.freebsd.com entries are just CNAMEs that point to
*.freebsd.org A records. At least that's what I get from typing:

	[jwyatt@hotbox /tmp]: host www.freebsd.com
	www.freebsd.com is a nickname for www.freebsd.org
	www.freebsd.org is a nickname for freefall.FreeBSD.org
	freefall.FreeBSD.org has address 216.136.204.21
	freefall.FreeBSD.org mail is handled (pri=10) by hub.FreeBSD.org

	[jwyatt@hotbox /tmp]: host freefall.FreeBSD.org
	freefall.FreeBSD.org has address 216.136.204.21
	freefall.FreeBSD.org mail is handled (pri=10) by hub.FreeBSD.org

	[jwyatt@hotbox /tmp]: host freefall.FreeBSD.net
	Host not found.

	[jwyatt@hotbox /tmp]: host hub.freebsd.org
	hub.freebsd.org has address 216.136.204.18
	hub.freebsd.org mail is handled (pri=10) by hub.freebsd.org

	[jwyatt@hotbox /tmp]: host hub.freebsd.net
	Host not found.

If it's wrong, please Cc: me on the solution... - Jy@
