Description:   Opened: 2007-02-19 11:07 0000
The bind dlz patch for the bdbhpt driver contains a severe bug which results in
the application trying to update the database and bind ending in a deadlock.
There was a patch proposed upstream, some time ago but the lead developer seems
to be too busy to take care of it.

Is it possible to include this please, it's a two-liner anyway ?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run bind with the bdbhpt driver
2. do a "dig axfr"
3. use your application to update the database

Actual Results:  
applications accessing the bdb end in a deadlock

Expected Results:  
updates get saved, no interruption of service
