Network manager and split DNS for a VPN?

[Peter Silva]

fwiw, every time I startup a vpn connection, dns breaks, it won't answer
any queries, so I kill dnsmasq.  Something starts it back up, and it's OK
(resolves the internal addresses as per the vpn connection.)   It started a
month or two ago...
