But if BIND 9 is seriously broken, and ISC says that BIND 4 and BIND 8
are still being supported, you try BIND 4 and BIND 8. Although less
feature-rich and more prone to security issues, you would think they
would be more likely to be stable. :)

years ago when they rewrote the windows sockets interface.
FWIW, the records I'm looking at were from less than a year ago, and as
recent as one version back (9.3.1 versus 9.3.2).
If they have 3 release versions and none work, it's going to take
reports of the latest version working well for at least a year until I
feel comfortable recommending it to others.
The DNS software I'm using now isn't great (it can only handle a couple
hundred packets per second, versus 1,000s), but it works flawlessly. I
can't say that for any of the *release* versions of BIND I've used on
Windows.
