According to rpw3@amdcad.AMD.COM (Rob Warnock), passive routing should be
done only on domain names (with ".uucp" considered a domain).

I suggest that this approach is too conservative, since it means that
passive rerouting becomes a requested service instead of a _default_
service.  After all, part of the beauty of passive routing is that it kicks
in *automatically*, but *only when needed*.
