Oh, and now that I've already pushed, I have a high-level question: what
is the minimum version of 'dnsmasq' that supports the command-line
syntax that this patch introduces?

+--local=// --domain-needed --filterwin2k \

If older dnsmasq doesn't recognize --local=// or the new --domain-needed
or --filterwin2k options, then we either need to make this code
conditional based on probing 'dnsmasq --help' at startup, or else change
the spec file to require a larger minimum version of dnsmasq (we already
require 2.41 for other reasons).
