Binary zone file and journal compatibility between Bind9 versions

Hello!

For testing I often up- and downgrade Bind versions, ie. Between 9.18, 9.20 and 9.21. I wonder how stable the binary zone file format and journal file format is, and if there are changes in the binary format, if Bind would detect that and behave properly.

I am concerned about zones that end up containing some garbage. I never had any issues, but I wonder if that could happen.

Thanks
Klaus
