[slackware-security] bind

New bind packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix security issues.

Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:

patches/packages/bind-9.16.48-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes bugs and security issues:
Specific DNS answers could cause a denial-of-service condition due to DNS
validation taking a long time.
Query patterns that continuously triggered cache database maintenance could
exhaust all available memory on the host running named.
Restore DNS64 state when handling a serve-stale timeout.
Specific queries could trigger an assertion check with nxdomain-redirect
enabled.
Speed up parsing of DNS messages with many different names.
