kill -HUP `cat /etc/named.pid` does not reload name server

[Mark.Andrews at nominum.com]

	Why do people fight the suggestions to upgrade?

 706.   [bug]           Zones with an explicit "allow-update { none; };"
                        were considered dynamic and therefore not reloaded
                        on SIGHUP or "rndc reload".
