RH's 9.3 ... as I noted, I've looked at the docs, but they don't tell you 
what is filtered and what isn't and what the differences between 
wanr/fail/ignore are.

The docs, as I noted, refer to RFC's 821, 952, and 1123, but those aren't 
specific about exactly what is "illegal" and, regardless, don't tell you 
what BIND considers "illegal".  Some RFC apparently "legalized" underbars, 
but it's none of those three.
