Another unimportant BIND named patch

[Barry Bouwsma]

[drop the above ipv6-only address that only sometimes works from the
 recipients and I'll catch up later from the archives, thanks]


Heh heh heh.

I'm not sure if this is worthy of a fix, or of what the state of
patches to vendor branches is.

The BIND named source code supplied with FreeBSD RELENG_4 has a
trivial error, where an IPv6 problem is logged as an IPv4 problem.

This is fixed by the following patch:


--- db_load.c-ORIG	Mon Aug 25 23:07:48 2003
+++ db_load.c	Tue May 11 16:47:51 2004
@@ -1043,7 +1043,7 @@
 
 			case ns_t_aaaa:
 				if (inet_pton(AF_INET6, buf, data) <= 0)
-					ERRTO("IPv4 Address");
+					ERRTO("IPv6 Address");
 				n = NS_IN6ADDRSZ;
 				endline(fp);
 				break;



Question:  Is this something that should be patched in FreeBSD,
or is it something that needs to be sent upstream to the ISC
(not that it's critical or anything)?  Or both (ideally)?
