Include statement does not work in view statement (named.conf) in bind-9.1.3

[Mark_Andrews at isc.org]

	Carl this c.p.d.b is also a mailing list.  It is extemely
	impolite to uses fake email addresses with a mailing list.
	If you want help have the decency to put a valid email
	address in.  Email address harvesters will remove things
	like "_no_spam" and then try both.  You just annoy the
	people who can help you as they don't know whether to remove
	it or not and will get a bounce back if they try both.

	The restriction is lifted in BIND 9.2 which has a new parser.
