WG: SUBDOMAINS with CNAMES....

Look back in the list archives around December 18 through 21, 2000. Someone
else (Eelko de Groot) was having a similar problem with BIND on SCO. Mark
Andrews suggested removing "-K pic" from the Makefiles and recompiling.
Apparently that worked around the problem. This is an SCO issue (broken
isprint()). It's possible that maybe SCO has a fix for the problem now and so
the workaround is no longer necessary...
