named and ntpd start order in rc.d

Hello.

I'm in the same situation described in this bug:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129146

ntpd starts when named is not yet running, fails to resolve its peers 
and never works again until I restart it manually.

That bug (of the 7.0 era) was closed as fixed, since /etc/rc.d/ntpd 
requires ntpdate, which in turn required named.
However, the latest statement is not true anymore, today (probably due 
to the fact that named is no longer in base).

I guess I'm not the only one who has this problem and I wonder how 
others are solving this issue.
Also, should I add a comment to that bug or open a new one?

  bye & Thanks
	av.
