Yes, I'd like to fix it very much, as I also think this is related. The
thing is that the server has normal TCP connectivity, and the error is
probably with BIND:

"10-Dec-2001 00:50:27.000 default: debug 3: error resending tcp msg:
Errcode: 9: Bad file descriptor"

This was sent to the bind-bugs list already.
