This isn't quite the same thing, though - "named-checkconf -p" will read
a named.conf file, check it for syntactic correctness, and prints it back
out in a normalized format with include files expanded. That's useful,
but I think Grant was suggesting having named itself dump its current
configuration state, which would be useful in a whole different way.
