Personally we ought to be paying the man for writing and maintaining bind.
It's only the single most important piece of software in use on the net today.

I thought we went through this already - THIS IS A FULL DISCLOSURE
LIST. If you don't have anything to say now - try to hold it till you 
have.

Actually, I can accept it from him, because

1) He's the package developer, and I wouldn't pillory someone who's
   software I have to use.
2) He used the magic words "until i've got it fixed". He's planning on
   telling everyone about it at the same time when he fixes it.
3) I get the impression this fix will be here very soon.
