System: NetBSD 5.99.11 i386
>Description:
        named(8) has changed the default location of its pid file,
        from /var/run/named.pid to /var/run/named/named.pid.

        /etc/rc.d/named does not know this.

        Due to chroot usage, the pid file is actually created
        in /var/chroot/named/var/run/named/named.pid,
        whereas the outer /var/run/named is a symlink to
        /var/chroot/named/var/run/named.pid.  This causes "/etc/rc.d/named
        stop" to be unable to stop the named process.

>How-To-Repeat:
        Code inspection
>Fix:
        One or more of the following:

        * Change the built-in default back to /var/run/named.pid.

        * Leave the built-in default as the incompatible new
          value /var/run/named/named.pid, but provide

                options { pid-file "/var/run/named.pid"; }

          in the default and sample named.conf files.

        * Adjust /etc/rc.d/named.conf to create the symlink as

          /var/run/named.pid -> /var/chroot/named/var/run/named/named.pid

        * Document the change in src/doc/CHANGES and in release notes
          for the next version of NetBSD.
