I'm much more awake now.  Sorry, on this point I was being dumb.  The
server only needs to know to bind to an address and to know that a
remote address is in the list of addresses obtained from resolving
entries in membership.  It never needs to match an address against its
own address.  So that works fine.

So, it's probably worth showing that example in sks.pod too.
