That it would, but please re-read what I wrote.

BIND version 9 is NOT vulnerable.

BIND version 9 is a completely different code base written by (mostly)
different people -- there is _no_ code shared between BIND 9 and any
earlier version of BIND (we suggested to the ISC to change the name but
they declined).

That BIND 9.* is vulnerable to this problem would be news.
