/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/dnsdata.pyc
/usr/share/bindconf/dnsdata.py

Comment 3 Need Real Name 2001-06-01 10:57:54 UTC 
Problem solved!
The file /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/dnsdata.pyc was the cause. All is OK
after removing it.
Comment 4 Harald Hoyer 2001-06-01 11:32:15 UTC 
Solution:
# rm -f /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/dnsdata.pyc
