tcpwrappers allowing access

Hmmm...
I've compiled tcp wrapper 7.6 with the -DPARANOID and -DALWAYS_HOSTNAME
options... and set hosts.allow to only the local subnet .phy.syr.edu, and
hosts.deny to ALL:ALL

I try and can't get in from my home cable roadrunner, good.
I have someone legitimately coming in from china,
202.116.84.110/denali.zsu.edu.cn (nslookup: can't find 202.116.84.110:
Non-existent host/domain) and it lets him in!--- BAD

ideas? What am I missing?

Here's what options the compile does:
>cc -O -DFACILITY=LOG_MAIL -DHOSTS_ACCESS -DPARANOID -DNETGROUP
>-DGETPEERNAME_BUG -DBROKEN_FGETS -DLIBC_CALLS_STRTOK -DDAEMON_UMASK=022
>-DREAL_DAEMON_DIR=\"/usr/sbin\" -DPROCESS_OPTIONS -DSEVERITY=LOG_INFO
>-DRFC931_TIMEOUT=10 -DHOSTS_DENY=\"/etc/hosts.deny\"
>-DHOSTS_ALLOW=\"/etc/hosts.allow\" -Dvsyslog=myvsyslog -DALWAYS_HOSTNAME
>-o tcpd tcpd.o libwrap.a

Thanks
