If I remember correctly it was happening in 5.2.1 also.

SIGHUP was the equivalent of rndc reconfig, IIRC.  Stop wasn't even a
concern
before DDNS.  Still, the threads issue in FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE is a bit
disconcerting, assuming the problem did not exist prior to this.  What
negative
implications are there in BIND when setting the thread contention scope to
process vs. system?  Worse than not having threads at all?
