Well, yes, I am a developer. Not specifically for "bind" (or else I'd be 
more widely known), but, in general, yes! I have been sind 1981 and will 
be for a few more months.

I need to package bind, but before doing so I usually run the tests on a 
couple of VMs to see if no obvious problems exist.

So, yes: on production builds these options are not enabled, but on the 
test VMs I must enable them or the tests will not run.

As I wrote:
1) I transfer the source archive, the SPEC file (for openSUSE), the 
patches and whatever else is needed to a VM (into 
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES).
2) I modify the SPEC file and add the two options mentioned above
3) I run "rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/bind.spec"
4) I change to /usr/src/packages/BUILD/bind-1.18.0
5) I run "bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh up"
6) I run "make test"

With 9.16.x, this works and "make test" takes ~40 minutes and gives me 
good confidence that everything is OK.

With 9.18.0, all I get is

So ... what did I do wrong?
