  Can't be done.  There *is* a "fallback" server if all of the other
home_servers in a pool are dead.  But it's only one server.

  If you really get wonky, set the fallback server to a unique port on
localhost, and then configure that port to forward all requests to a
group of servers in fail-over mode.

  Ugly, but it will work.
