It re-reads the config. The other day I set a 8.3.1 server which runs as
a non-root user (like all my BIND installs) to start using port 53 for
it's query source port (temporarily). I did a 'ndc reload' and immediately
saw the errors from a non-root user trying to bind to port 53. This is
proof that at least on UNIX, it re-reads the config file.

To sysadmin or not to sysadmin... that is the question, whether tis
nobler in the minde to suffer the slings and arrowes of outragious
fortune, or climb to the top of the building with a high-power rifle
and scope.
