[Bug 959037] Re: NM-controlled dnsmasq prevents other DNS servers from starting

[Thomas Hood]

@Simon: This is pretty much what I had in mind (comment #88) as a long-
term solution.  How difficult do you think that this would be?

(Moving nm-dnsmasq listening to another port than 53 is at best a veeery
long-term solution since it requires first getting glibc enhanced, then
getting all other resolver libraries enhanced, then waiting for third-
party static binaries to be replaced by new versions built against
enhanced libraries.  That's a ten-year project.)

If "bind-interfaces-dynamically" works well then I see no reason why it
shouldn't be the default mode of operation.  Indeed, I see no reason why
it shouldn't be the *only* mode on OSs with support for it.
