Well, yes it does, by definition actually. :)
util_rb_2tld says that, in your example, "hostevo.com" is a TLD and not a
domain.  So it's not that there's an implication that "hostevo.com" should not
be queried, in as much as "hostevo.com" is specified to be a TLD and so
therefore not something that is checked via URIBLs.

We have (essentially) "util_rb_2tld co.uk", should we start checking "co.uk" ?

What about it?  Real ones should be added to the code.  The config option is
there as a) a patch to push out a config until new code is released, and b) to
handle not-real-but-act-like-real ones.



We could tweak behaviors if we wanted to, but IMO the real solution (as
mentioned in the past) is to get the URIBLs to do wildcard listings, and then
we can ignore the whole boundary thing and just query the hostname that comes
out of URLs.
