Bug 174129

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #174127 +++

Description of problem:

These BIND bugs have been fixed by the upstream ISC BIND maintainers,
and the fixes have been reviewed and tested. I have selected this bare
minimum set of bug fixes from the ISC BIND 9.2.6 release, verified that
the code changes fix genuine problems in the Linux BIND source, and have
backported them to the RHEL-4 bind-9.2.4 release . 

No new features are added by these bug fixes - they fix known problems in
the BIND source code only.

New test cases have been added to the test suite and all tests pass.

-- Additional comment from jvdias on 2005-11-24 16:14 EST --
These fixes have been backported in the bind-9.2.4-14_EL4 release, with
source code patch 'bind-9.2.4-9-2-6-backport.patch' .

N.B.: fix for ISC bugs: - 1825 and 1847 - should fix RHEL-4 bind bug 173961 .
