The difference between the "bad" example (top) and the "good" examples
(below) is that the opening brace begins on the same line as the keyword,
and not on the following line.

A better second-example would have been:

config-directive
{
	data;
}

which (I believe) is valid.  The difference then becomes "There's no RFC
for bind configs, but there is one (1035) for zonefiles." ;-)
