Subject: bind9 dies with assertion failure (adb.c:914)
Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.3.4-2etch1
Severity: normal

This morning bind9 stopped (process wasn't running). I found this in the logs:

Oct  8 11:05:49 hostname named[4941]: adb.c:914: INSIST((((namehook) != ((void *)0)) && (((const 
isc__magic_t *)(namehook))->magic == ((('a') << 24 | ('d') << 16 | ('N') << 8 | 
('H')))))) failed
Oct  8 11:05:49 hostname named[4941]: exiting (due to assertion failure)

I'm sorry to say that I don't know what triggered this assertion but I haven't seen this before so at least it seems rare.

(this assertion doesn't seem to match any of the other reported assertions)

bind is authorative for an internal foreward zone and some internal reverse zones. It is also used as a caching resolver (server also running a mailserver so a lot of lookups are taking place).
