quite misleading message, but the problem is that named want to send UDP 
packet and get's error from kernel.


possible reasons
- your firewall rules are the cause - check it.
- your network card produce problems (REALLY i have that case)
- the network/LAN named tries to sent UDP packet is somehow flooded.

i experienced all 3 cases. last is of course easiest to detect.
