Really?  Right now the documentation, and expectation, is that
CIDR is not allowed on restrict.  It makes no change to documented
or normal behavior.  So the expectation is : Don't do it.

When I get it working, certainly by next week, I'll add documentation.

UNtil then, pretend it does not exist.

Consider this fair warninging that I am adding CIDR to the restrict
statement.  No changes to working/existing configurations have been done
or will be done.  Just an extention that needs a bit more work.

I am working on the rest of the implementation right now, but not
gonna rush it.
