   For some sites, it may be preferable to continue using BIND 4.x rather
   than upgrade to 8.x. Unfortunately, some security features (running as
   a non-root user, and in a chrooted environment) were in 8.x only. This
   patch makes these available back in 4.x (well, with some changes), and
   adds OpenBSD-style random ID's (the code and any bugs are my own).
