I ran into a problem today attempting to build the current version of bind,
bind-9.5.0p1-20080709.src.rpm, on a SuSE Linux Enterprise 9 PL3
system with the following error:
/csrel25/bin/cc -I/csrel25/RPM/TMP/bind-9.5.0-P1 -I./include -I./../include
-I/csrel25/RPM/TMP/bind-9.5.0-P1/lib/dns/include -I../../../lib/dns/include

This is in the line that is patched in bind.patch, and results when
attempting to OR something into a structure, a practice that has been
deprecated for decades (no wonder it' Buggy Internet Name Daemon :-).
The package did build on a SuSE Linux Enterprise 10 system which has a
different version of libcap the source of sys/capability.h. The SLES10
system has linux/capability.h but no sys/capability.h while SLES9SP3 has
both.
I got BIND to build by turning off linux capabilities in the configure,
adding an option to the bind.spec file to allow turning this off. I don't
know what one loses by disabling these functions, but I'm going out of town
in the morning and don't have time to dig into this today.
The attached patch to bind.spec enables this option.
