Have you filed any bug reports about these crashes? BTW some of the
problems people have found in BIND9 are actually faults in the OS's
threading software. [Not that this really matters because the end
result is an unresponsive name server.] To get around these problems
BIND9.1 can be compiled as a single-threaded application.
