additional section was full.
1501. [port] decunix: OSF 3.2 does not have native 64 bit support.
1500. [port] linux: namespace collision.
1499. [port] linux: #include <time.h> bin/dig/dig.c

zone is removed.

lead to panics in stale().

be deleted by loading a child zone.

1410. [port] probe for sin6_scope_id when probing for IPv6 structs.
1409. [bug] dig: reverse6 computed a incorrect nibble string.
1408. [cleanup] res_mkquery.c: kill buflen manipulation.
1407. [port] namespace clash EV_ERR -> EV_SETERR
- sprintf() can return negative value on error, so p += sprintf(p, blah)
is unsafe
- signed/unsigned mixup
- wrong assumption: sizeof(time_t) <= sizeof(int)
- need to init errno to 0 before strtoul()
first. This is necessary to avoid warnings with -fshort-enums. Casting
to an int really should be enough, but turns out not to be.
This change will be documented in doc/HACKS.
Make sure that each va_start has one and only one matching va_end,
especially in error cases.
If the va_list is used multiple times, do multiple va_starts/va_ends.
If a function gets va_list as argument, don't let it use va_end (since
it's the callers responsibility).
Improved by comments from enami and christos -- thanks!
Heimdal/krb4/KAME changes already fed back, rest to follow.
Inspired by, but not not based on, OpenBSD.
- resolve conflicts (there are many conflicts with $NetBSD$ tags -
dunno why they happen).
- type pedant (couple of typecasts).
correct yacc-generated file handling. remove bin/named/ns_parser.h,
use the header yacc generates at compilation time.
dig/host/whatever assumes that it is using BIND8 code. mixing BIND4 in
libc with BIND8 code will result in very strange behavior, or program panics.
it is not necessary for dig/host/whatever to obey /etc/nsswitch.conf, actually
dig(1) is explicit about it.
now dist/bind is almost clean BIND822p5, with the following exception:
- /etc/irs.conf will never be visited when running BIND8 toolchain,
to make it less complex. the search order for BIND8 toolchain is
defined in dist/bind/lib/irs/gen.c:default_map_rules().
and usr.sbin/bind compiles them in BSD make framework, with no tricks at all.
