Comment:

 Hello

 I think this should work. However, I'd appreciate two things:
  * Test that the glue can be extracted by calling find.
  * An explanation comment about the `may_have_glue` variable. The name is
 not crystal-clear and I think, while the purpose is obvious in the context
 of this single diff, it would take some time to grasp the purpose when
 reading the function.

 Also, this allows the domain name to contain any A/AAAA, not just the glue
 one. I'm not sure there's a reasonable way to check the A/AAAA is really
 glue, though. So maybe comment the check may have a false negative in that
 regard?

 And, as this is a publicly-observable bug, I think it should have a
 changelog entry.

 Thank you
