* Re-Applied patch provided vom Topi Miettinen with regard to the people

from OpenBSD.  This provides the additional '-a' argument used for
    specifying additional UNIX domain sockets to listen to.  This is been
    used with chroot()'ed named's for example.  An example is described at
    http://www.psionic.com/papers/dns.html.  This time the patch doesn't
    stall syslogd.  Thanks to Topi Miettinen <tom@medialab.sonera.net>
