Bug#750760: bind9: requires -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks on gcc = 4.9
Package: bind9 Severity: normal According to [0], bind9 should be compiled with -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks added to CFLAGS, in order to avoid certain optimizations that occur when compiled with gcc 4.9 that can cause the server process to crash. I've also written an article [1] on the topic with a little more background info. It might be prudent to have this workaround in bind9 active before the switch to gcc-4.9 to minimize the possibility of bad binaries reaching the archive.
