[idn] hostnames
* The syntax of hostnames is defined in RFC 952.
* RFC 103[45] does NOT define hostname syntax.
* domain names labels are *binary* length tagged strings.
* host names are restricted to 'A'-'Z' 'a'-'z' '0'-'9' '-' and '.'
A lot of drafts keep miss using the term domain name when
they actually mean host name based on the context.
