Well, these are false dependencies. We do use some stuff from isc.config in
bindctl (so it understands the configuration structures). And while these don't
do anything with ccsession, there are other functions in the same module that
do. And so there's the import statement that tries to load that.

I think we should take care and split the module up so we can run bindctl
separately (and maybe even test it somehow). The split looks like another nice
cleanup to be done with the rewrite of configuration data structures O:-).

Nevertheless, I think we need a ticket for this.

With regards
