Vetoed. The reason why we need the client's IP address as an argument
for nlmsvc_find_block() is 'cos the cookie value is unique to the
_client_ only.

IOW: when we go searching a global list of blocks for a given cookie
value that was sent to us by a given client, then we want to know that
we're only searching through that particular client's blocks.

A better way, BTW, would be to get rid of the global list nlm_blocked,
and just move the list of blocks into a field in the nlm_host for each
client.
