That's no excuse for running old code.

It isn't. Without a controls{} statement, the name server will not set
up a listener socket for control messages. [How else could the server
know which port and key(s) to use and which client(s) were allowed??]
Therefore there will be nothing for an rndc client to connect to. The
admin may well be using rndc, but it won't be for controlling the
server that has a named.conf file that doesn't have a controls{}
statement.
