    # run before IPAddr::InvalidAddressError is raised.
    # I don't see what broke it in rails 4.0.1...
    # So this validator doesn't actually do anything anymore.
    # But let's keep it in case a future version of rails fixes the problem and allows
    # validators to work on inet and cidr columns.
