Comment(by westi):

 The check in akismet won't actually work anyway.

 For Example {{{"Howdy" && long2ip(ip2long("Howdy"))}}} will evaluate to
 true as the string evaluates to true and the false returned by ip2long
 will cast to an int(0) fine which becomes an ip address of "0.0.0.0" which
 as a string with evaluate to true.
