	Either of these changes would be a HUGE mistake. We already have a port
of BIND 8, make a port of sendmail and the people who want/need this are
set.

	If it doesn't break existing setups, fine. If it does, no way.
2.2-Stable should be left in its current state except for bug fixes, and
efforts should go into making 3.whateverthehell stable enough to use in
production. Nickel and diming 2.2-Stable will just lead to a lot of
headaches.
