I could be wrong, but I think that all V9 and even all V8 had this
"feature".  I include them anyway - because sometimes I need to change
what's hidden in the program.

With current V9 you can 'cp /dev/null $directory/named.conf' and have
'named' work fine.  But I have only done this once, just for the
experience.
