>Description:
	When I installed NetBSD 1.6.2 on my Beige G3 desktop, I ran into
	many errors in the log file like this:

I did not see any serious problems that resulted from this, but as you can see from the timestamps, they
are sufficiently frequent to cause concern that bind is busted.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Install NetBSD 1.6.2 on MacPPC G3 beige.  Run the bind
	as distributed.
>Fix:
	I downloaded and installed bind 8.4.4 from ISC.  Problem solved.
