Never mind. Was looking for journalprint not journalprint.c, and I 
haven't compiled all of the various versions of BIND on that particular box.

In any case, journalprint is a handy utility for anyone wanting to learn 
about how the journalling function works in BIND. We include it in our 
"essential" DNS troubleshooting utilities that we install on all 
Unix/Linux boxes, along with dig and a few others.

I personally think it should be moved to a "regular" spot in the 
distribution -- being under "test" seems to imply that its status is 
rather, er, tenuous.
