Put me in the "love" group. BIND is a flaming turd, in so many ways. It
has been compromised countless times in the past, and it will be many
times more in the future. Funny ... so has vixie-cron ... hmmmm .... I
sense a trend here.

The developer of djbdns (Dan Bernstein) is a _total_ fruitcake. But he
writes robust, secure software.
