Hallo, Simon,
Du meintest am 10.07.08 zum Thema Re: [Dnsmasq-discuss] dnsmasq-2.43rc3 available.:

2.43rc3 doesn't accept a second "expand hosts", and it doesn't accept a
second "filterwin2k".
Then I stopped the further examination ...
In a shell script the lines
var1=abcde
var1=12345
var1=ab12e
lead to "var1=ab12e" - that's the behaviour of dnsmasq 2.41 too. It
simplifies working with included configuration files.
Please restore the old behaviour - thank you!
By the way: 2.43rc3 can recognise doublettes - it should be able to sort
these doublettes in another way than "allowed" or "not allowed".
Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
