code to the DDNS handling. This code included a bug that caused it
to attempt to dereference a NULL pointer and eventually segfault.
While reviewing the code as we addressed this problem, we determined
that some of the updates to the lease structures would not work as
planned since the structures being updated were in the process of
being freed: these updates were removed. In addition we removed an
incorrect call to the DDNS removal function that could cause a failure
during the removal of DDNS information from the DNS server.
Thanks to Jasper Jongmans for reporting this issue.

than extend or renew the lease. This absolves the server of needing
to perform an fsync() operation on the lease database before reply,

[ISC-Bugs #23470] - Modify when an ignore return macro is defined to
handle unsed error return warnings for more versions of gcc.
[ISC-Bugs #23196] - Modify the reply handling in the server code to
send to a specified port rather than to the source port for the incoming
message. Sending to the source port was test code that should have
been removed. The previous functionality may be restored by defining
REPLY_TO_SOURCE_PORT in the includes/site.h file. We suggest you don't
enable this except for testing purposes.
