    It's the address in memory of the data structure BIND uses
    to hold its working state for the query.

    It has nothing to do with the client addres, BTW.

    Is it of any use to log it then?

    And thus of not much real use - unless you're
    prepared to a lot of extra work attaching those
    BIND addresses to the actual IP involved.

    Linux keeps LOTS of logs by default. Only SOME
    are especially useful.
