Then is this a non solution. Does this mean I can't use a vendors version of 
named? Ultrix's named works with hesiod, but include/arpa/nameser.h
under Ultrix has PACKETSZ set to 512, which we really can't change.
Does having a larger PACKETSZ in hesiod requests, but 512 in named break?
If so, then we really can't fix anything.
