Although the docs state:
> ip/n
>
> All IP addresses that share the first n bits of the IP address ip are on the list. For example, 1.2.3.0/24 means all 1.2.3.* addresses. n must be at least 8, and all bits past the nth in ip must be 0.

It does not exactly say what happens if an IP address has a bit set in
the "all bits past the nth in ip must be 0" range.
Inserting a 122.177.0.0/15 did not get an error from rbldns-data when
the list is compiled into a cdb.
Nor did rbldns blacklist the ip address 122.177.157.189
Apparently no proof reading is done.
