> Why not just grab the Fedora srpm and recompile on rhel6?

a) the latest fedora srpm uses systemd rather than sysv init scripts
(which are used by el4, el5, el6).

b) we want a single source rpm that will compile and run all the way
back to rhel4/centos4.

c) we want to be able to trivially upgrade to 9.9.1-P2 or 9.9.2 or
whatever ISC releases.

d) we want our binary to have the same source line numbers as the ISC
source code, so that crash dump line numbers mean something to ISC.
