Thank you very much.  I would like to clarify two things - first, that I
can "fix" bind9 by simply grabbing the tarball, configure;make;make
install  ...  or do I have to change libraries on the system itself and
otehrwise rearrange things in order for bind9 to compile "fixed" ?

That is, just update bind9 as normal ?

Second, again, just to clarify, this is a full fix ?  Once someone does
this they can rest easy ?

thanks a lot!
