What command did you use?

If all you need is the `lease_prune()` call from your C patch, dnsmasq
also does this on a SIGALRM so you could try to see if sending that
helps.

(dnsmasq also has a dbus api to add/remove leases for the worst case...)

Otherwise, at first glance the C patch seems to potentially break some
other cases, but I don't know the code at all.
