Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not drugged. And it's a preferable
solution, since we now have at least for over half a year a bind9
package in debian and for a lot longer time a bind package, which
doesn't offer any chroot support and nobody cared about that. Suddenly
as Martin is ITP'ing a bind9-chroot package, someone says, that mount
--bind is available and everyone is now suddenly favoring this solution.
And any discussion about other solutions is partly ignored, wrong
assumptions about comments where made or the one, who is critizing this
idea, is either categorized as: troll, drugged or idiot.

Which helps you exactly how much with the fact, that for example the VM
in 2.4.x kernel is still not well-tested and therefor not a good choice
for a server that can be heavy loaded?

I'm already to fed up with this discussion, since facts are ignored or
people are just don't want to discuss this but only see the "great"
mount --bind solution. It's nice to see how much Debian is focussing
these days on technical solutions based on the latest kernel features
instead of technical solutions that work with every kernel, especially
those proven as stable.
