I have a pair of 3.0_STABLE kernel dual CPU sparc systems (with 3.0
userlands, ie BIND 9.3.0) which don't exhibit this problem. I'm guessing
that the change to build BIND on sparc/sparc64 without pthread support came
after 3.0 though, as my dig(1) is linked against libpthread.

FWIW, both machines (primary and secondary nameservers hosting a few zones
and doing DNS caching amongst other things) have been rock solid, even with
BIND compiled with pthread support.
