So, I've seen this twice now.  BIND completely flips its lid and 
utterly destroys the server.  Logs say:

My root hints are up to date, and I've seen this both using forwarders 
and not.

I've read that this is some incompatibility between BIND 8.3 and other 
servers.  Is the only solution to this problem to run BIND 9?

I really have to make sure this doesn't happen again, because it has 
catastrophic effects on the server.  Thanks for any help!
