  Modified files:
    etc/defaults         rc.conf 
    etc/rc.d             named 
    share/man/man5       rc.conf.5 
  Log:
  1. Remove the named_rcng variable. Mike's caution in this area was a good
  thing, but we're ready to move on.
  
  2. Remove the -g default argument in named_flags. It doesn't actually do
  what most users think it does, and what most users want it to do is already
  accomplished with a proper default group for the bind user, which we have.
  Also, the -g knob does something entirely different in BIND 9, which leads
  to a lot of needless confusion/aggravation.
  
  3. In the rc.d script, don't bogusly override $command, or $rc_flags. Both
  are adequately handled in rc.conf[.local].
  
  4. DO properly override $rc_flags if user has named_chrootdir set.
  This may need to be revisited, but should be ok for now.
  
  5. Protect all chrootdir-related bits under that variable, instead of
  named_rcng.
  
  There is more work to be done here, especially in the area of BIND 9
  compatibility, but this is a start at least.
