significant updates, not the least of which is the new and improved
DNSSEC code based on the latest standards (including DS).
Various updates to the port, including:
1. Download the PGP signature
2. If running on ${OSVERSION} >= 503000, configure with threads
3. Update pkg-descr re IPv6 RRs
4. Update pkg-message to reflect a world with 6-current
There is also a patch to correct a man page installation error.
This problem should be fixed in the next release.
