New bind packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,
and -current to fix security issues.

+--------------------------+
patches/packages/bind-9.9.6_P1-i486-1_slack14.1.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes a security issue where a failure to place limits on
  delegation chaining can allow an attacker to crash BIND or cause memory
  exhaustion.
