I struggled too ;-). It tries to coax the DOMAIN (i.e., aol, sourceforge,
slashdot, theregister, etc.) from the string and parse it into the $dn
variable. That's what allows the 'aol' from 'fred.aol.co.uk' to end up in
the right field when comparing to '*.aol.*'. I didn't say it would be
elegant ;-)

Ok, that's easy enough.

If '.bl' is a valid tld (like '.co') then I'll add it to the $valid_tlds
variable and it should parse correctly. I wasn't aware of it. If it
conflicts with a country code, then I will have a problem.
