The CVS log shows that bind 8.2 should have been committed to 3.2-RELEASE
with Makefile revision 19. This is not the case.  Doing a `what named`
shows bind is still 8.1.2.  I agree with Doug, bind should remain as a
port even if the system has the current versions since older fbsd releases
may not.
