+devoid of (glueless) nameservers, and therefore fine to provide
+glueless referrals for. See GLUELESSNESS below.
+.TP
+\fBallow-\-indirect\-glue\fP \fInameserver-superdomain ...\fP
+Specifies a list of domains under which we expect to find glueless
+nameservers, with up to one layer of indirection.
+For nameservers under these domains it is OK to to find glueless
+referrals, but only when listed as a nameserver for a zone which is
+not itself a subdomain of an \fBallow-indirect-glue\fR
+\fInameserver-superdomain\fR.
+
+This supports to common configuration style where DNS operator(s) set
+up all of their nameservers with names within a small subsection of
+the DNS (the portions under \fInameserver-superdomain\fRs), and
+provide glueless referrals naming these nameservers for all other
+zones. This provides at most one level of missing glue.
+
+Note that if the DNS administrators collectively able to influence the
+service for some zone (including the admins for its superzones, the
+zones containing its nameservers, and their superzones and so forth)
+are not in sufficiently close communication do not all agree on the
+proper set of \fInameserver-superdomain\fR then they might still set
+up circular glue and \fBchiark-named-conf\fR would not necessarily be
+able to detect this even if it was run on every relevant nameserver.
+.TP
+\fBmail\-state\-dir\fP \fIdirectory\fP
+Uses
+.I directory
+for storing information about recent failures for mailing to zone
+admins. See \-\-mail\-first et al. Old files in here should be
+cleaned up periodically out of cron. There is no default.
+.TP
+\fBmail\-max\-warnfreq\fP \fIpercentage\fP
+When \-\-mail\-final is used, a mail will be sent to all zones which
+had warnings or errors more than
+.IR percentage %
+of the times \-\-mail\-* was used (since the last \-\-mail\-first).
+The default is 50%.
+.TP
+.BR modifiers " " !*$@~? "] [\fIgroup\fP]"
+Applies the specified zone style modifiers (see below) to subsequently
+declared zones (until the next
+.B modifiers
+directive), as if the modifiers specified were written out for
+each zone. You must specify at least one character for the modifiers;
+if you want to reset everything to the default, just say
+.BR ! .
+If style modifiers specified in the zone directive
+conflict with the
+.B modifiers
+directive, those specified in the zone directive take effect.
+.I group
+may contain alphanumerics and underscores, and is used for the
+.B -m
+command-line option.
+.TP
+\fBself\-addr\fP \fIip-address ...\fP
+Specifies the list of addresses that this server may be known by in
+A records. There is no default.
