I've only been subscribed here a week and this topic seems very heated, so sorry if this stirs the pot up again, but don't patches for these things get back-ported? So even if you're running bind v9.5.1 on CentOS/upstream 4/5.x you'd still have security fixes like those in this article backported right? And yeah I suppose rolling your own is always an option but in my experience it's to easy to get behind. This seems more like a Slackware approach tho, nothing against Slack of course!
