No empty shared-network allowed version 4.2.4

[Ryan Gray]

Hello humans,

I'm running dhcpd version 4.2.4 on Ubuntu.  My apt history file reports
"isc-dhcp-server:amd64 (4.2.4-7ubuntu12.3)".  I have a need for empty
shared-network declarations in my dhcpd.conf file.  Like so:

shared-network VIDEO {
}

I could swear dhcpd was perfectly happy with this in the past. However,
when I restart the service with an empty shared-network statement now, it
fails with these:
Oct 12 19:26:25 goatdev dhcpd: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf line 88: empty
shared-network decl

Am I losing my mind?

Any input would be greatly appreciated!
