Yes. The security officer made the request to handle MF*s to RELENG_7
and the security branches. My understanding is that these updates are
imminent. If your need for this update is urgent I encourage you to
use the ports. This might be a very good time to give 9.5.0-P1 a try.

FYI, one of the reasons for the delay was the need to coordinate two
vendor imports into our subversion tree, and branch the bind9 vendor
area to boot. This (to my knowledge) is the first time we've done
anything on this scale with the new tree and it was important that it
be done right, especially since we have two different versions of BIND
in -stable branches right now (and it's likely that I'll have 3
versions in src/ pretty shortly).

That said, I'd like to emphasize that this delay is not really that
big of an issue since as I said above, the ports are available for
those that can't wait.

hth,

Doug
