According to Vixie, et al., the releases between 4.9.5-P1 and 8.1-REL
weren't public releases.  8.1 intergrates lots of nifty features, like
DHCP support (i.e. dynamic updating), and gets rid of that mess,
/etc/named.boot, and replaces it with a much more structured
/etc/named.conf.

8.1's only a few days old.  Relax.
