upgrade from 4.9.5 to Bind 8.2.2p5

[Danny Mayer]

		The biggest noticeable difference with 8.2.3-T6B is that it doesn't
  hang after Multiple-A records are returned, it listens on Multiple
Interfaces
  (Multiple NIC cards and multiple addresses on the same NIC cards),
  I fixed a axfr zone transfer problem and the main DNS tools: nslookup,
  dig and host are available.  I didn't really bother much with the 8.2.2-P5
  code for NT.  I'm also willing to look into problems on NT for the 8.2.3-T6B
  port.  I won't do that for the older code.  I doubt that anyone else will
either.
