Folks,

Way back at the bsdcon in Foster City when we first started talking about 
importing BIND 9 into the base we also talked about adding more knobs to 
give users finer grained control over which bits of BIND were built, and 
turning off the build of named (and associated binaries) by default. Well, 
the first bit is done, so we're now in the position of being able to flip 
the NO_BIND_NAMED knob (see make.conf(5) for details) to WITH_BIND_NAMED, 
and turn it off by default. Is this something that we're still interested in 
doing? If so, this would be a good time to do it, since I'll be importing 
9.3.1 sometime in the next couple days (first round of make world testing is 
underway), and we're still early in the life of 6-current.

Of course, this would only be for 6-current, we wouldn't change the behavior 
in RELENG_[45].

What do you think?

Doug
