This is a mistake.  ISPs that aren't providing reverse DNS should fix
their DNS.  It is mostly because of practices like lsof.itap.purdue.edu
that we have a well implemented reverse DNS entries within the Internet
community.  The issue was forced when ftp.uu.net (then the largest
distributor of centralized open source) required reverse DNS entries in
order to login.  Previous to that, most ISPs were too damned lazy (and in
competent) to Do The Right Thing(tm).
