 an explanation for this?

Well, I am not sure about the DoS possibilities, but I take advantage of the
fact that it allows zone tranfers to have a local mirror of @d.o in my bind

 Nice work on getting this out. Is sarge going to get an update, is it
 even affected? I've looked into CVE-2007-2444, and
 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/23974/ says that the version in sarge
 is affected.

Sarge is still missing a few builds.

Cheers,
Moritz

And what about updated packages for sparc and arm? My samba daemon runs
on an old Ultra 60... :-)

For the moment you may be better off without the update.  See e.g. bug
424629.  (obviously if you machines get rooted then this isn't much
help...)
