ensure that all changes that are in progress have
completed prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7. BIND 9.7
is not backwards compatible.
2156. [bug] Fix node reference leaks in lookup.c:lookup_find(),
resolver.c:validated() and resolver.c:cache_name().
Fix a memory leak in rbtdb.c:free_noqname().
Make lookup.c:lookup_find() robust against
event leaks. [RT #16685]

this but are likely to be in a future release.
New options: empty-server, empty-contact,

improving loading performance. The masterfile-format
option in named.conf can be used to specify a
non-default format. A new separate command
named-compilezone was provided to generate zone files
in a new format.

content to improve response performance. Several
configuration options were provided to control the
behavior.
child zones for which we don't have a supported
algorithm. Such child zones are treated as unsigned.
