* Wed Jan 12 2005 <dcbw@xxxxxxxxxx> - 0.3.3-1.cvs20050112
- Update to latest CVS
- Fixes to DHCP code
- Link-Local (ZeroConf/Rendezvous) support
- Use bind in "caching-nameserver" mode to work around stupidity
in glibc's resolver library not recognizing resolv.conf changes
- #rh144818# Clean up the specfile (Patch from Matthias Saou)
- Ad-Hoc mode support with Link-Local addressing only (for now)
- Fixes for device activation race conditions

Looks like the fact that it is using a local copy of bind is at least
documented in the changelog. I would guess that the changelog in
/usr/share/doc also reflects it.
