It came up in the "postfix config" thread, so I remembered I wanted to
ask this.

Any particular reason why ubuntu ships postfix chrooted by default, but
not bind? The security history of these two differs significantly.

In fact, it's kind of expected to have bind running in a chroot, but not
postfix.
