(a) No, go ahead.

(b) Yes, I'm not convinced that program trying to use libwrap should
    be able to get away with not defining allow_severity and
    deny_severity.  And in any case I suspect the weak symbols should be
    initialised to something meaningful rather than implicitly left as
    `0' (LOG_INFO for allow and LOG_WARN for deny are what the other
    tcp-wrapper utilities use).

Take your pick, I'm not really sure.

Cheers,
aj
