   This ties in with a question I have about BIND.  In revision 1.5 of
   src/usr.sbin/bind/include/config.h, a change was made to correct
   functionality on sparc and sparc64.  Revision 1.6 seems to have done
   away with that change.  If that change is no longer needed in 4.0 and
   above, it might be relevant to mention.  (Or it might be too minor, I
   don't know.)  Alternately, perhaps the change was clobbered
   unintentionally?


if this is for pthreads then the problem no longer exists in
-current.  but 4.0 should have them enabled -- that is before
the problem was fixed.
