[Bind 9/Bind 8] $TTL problem

	That should have read "without a explict ttl or a $TTL".

 834.   [func]          Accept (but warn about) master files beginning with
                        an SOA record without an explicit TTL field and
                        lacking a $TTL directive, by using the SOA MINTTL
                        as a default TTL.  This is for backwards compatibility
                        with old versions of BIND 8, which accepted such  
                        files without warning although they are illegal
                        according to RFC1035.
