We have now found new side effects with the patches.
Under high load and when using IPv6 we've found that named can crash with a segmentation fault. It crashes on a line inserted by the patches provided in this defect : LIN5-21257

We have found an upstream patch which seems to solve the issue, at least in initial testing:
https://source.isc.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=bind9.git;a=commitdiff;h=c03fe78ef59b2373233db1a7b568cc2000d6d3b4
It seems like this patch was created not so long time after one of the commits, that were later backported to WRL5. Can you check if this patch is applicable in WRL5 (we believe so)? Possibly also if there are other patches affecting the backported commits?
