Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.3.2-P1.0-1

Bind9 (running on my mipsel based router) died today. Trying to investigate
the issue, I found the following lines in my syslog and daemon.log files:

Jan 30 19:17:59 Trieuse named[650]: mem.c:628: INSIST(((unsigned char 
*)mem)[size] == 0xbe) failed
Jan 30 19:17:59 Trieuse named[650]: exiting (due to assertion failure)

I did not find any core files, sorry...

The bind9 package had been freshly installed less than a week ago, probably
at the same version number. I only changed the named.conf.options file
as follows:

-------------------- named.conf.options ------------------------
options {
        directory "/var/cache/bind";

        // If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
        // to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
        // directive below.  Previous versions of BIND always asked
        // questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 and later use an unprivileged
        // port by default.

        // query-source address * port 53;

        // If your ISP provided one or more IP addresses for stable 
        // nameservers, you probably want to use them as forwarders.  
        // Uncomment the following block, and insert the addresses replacing 
        // the all-0's placeholder.

        // forwarders {
        //      0.0.0.0;
        // };

        auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035

        listen-on {
                127.0.0.1;
                10.0.0.1;
        };

        listen-on-v6 { any; };
};

// Reduce log verbosity on issues outside our control.
logging {
        category lame-servers { null; };
};

Installed package versions:
bind9, libbind9-0, libdns21, libisc11, libisccc0, libisccfg1, liblwres9:

Kernel: Linux Trieuse 2.6.16.35 #5 Sun Jan 21 04:28:12 PST 2007 mips GNU/Linux
(compiled from pristine kernel.org source, for mipsel architecture)

I use bind9 as a caching name server, it does not serve any domains other than
localhost and 0/127/255.in-addr-arpa as configured in the default named.conf,
and the firewall blocks outside connections to TCP and UDP ports 53.

Hope this helps - sorry I could not find a core file :/
