why does bind 9.2.1 take so long to completely exit?

Gang,

I've noticed it takes a surprising amount of time for bind 9.2.1 to
completely exit:

Aug  5 17:05:27 6D:sturd named[33448]: shutting down
Aug  5 17:05:27 6D:sturd named[33448]: no longer listening on w.x.y.z#53
Aug  5 17:05:27 6D:sturd named[33448]: no longer listening on w.x.y.z#53
Aug  5 17:05:27 6D:sturd named[33448]: no longer listening on 127.0.0.1#53
Aug  5 17:07:05 5D:sturd named[33448]: exiting

There's only three zones on this server, one largish one at 17Mb, the
other two at about 1Mb each.

This is under Irix 64bit, 6.5.16m.

I've seen this delay on other Irix systems as well.
