People are told to put at least *2* nameservers in their /etc/resolv.conf. If
they just have 127.0.0.1, this means they don't care a lot about resolving, as
named can crash at any time.

Also, I think it might be a good idea for 'ndc' to be able to parse
/etc/defaults/rc.conf & /etc/rc.conf, for named_flags, and launch named with
this flags. If you run bind with the default configuration, it will be running
as bind:bind, but if you ndc restart it, it will run as root:wheel...
