Log Message:
Update bind9 to 9.0.0rc1.  This is the first release candidate for bind9.
Changes are too numerous to list here in detail, but highlights are:

  The communication between "rndc" and "named" is now
  authenticated using digital signatures.  Because of
  this, rndc now requires a configuration file "rndc.conf"
  containing a shared secret, with a corresponding
  "controls" clause in named.conf.

  When the server is chrooted using the -t option,
  it no longer needs copies of the passwd and group
  files in the chroot environment.

  Various bug fixes and cleanups, especially
  in the dig, host, nslookup, and nsupdate
  programs.

There are a few known bugs:

  The option "query-source * port 53;" will not work as
  expected.  Instead of the wildcard address "*", you need
  to use an explicit source IP address.

  On some systems, IPv6 and IPv4 sockets interact in
  unexpected ways.  For details, see doc/misc/ipv6.
  To reduce the impact of these problems, the server
  no longer listens for requests on IPv6 addresses
  by default.  If you need to accept DNS queries over
  IPv6, you must specify "listen-on-v6 { any; };"
  in the named.conf options statement.

  There are known problems with thread signal handling
  under Solaris 2.6.
