Hi,

According to (both post were at samba-technical at 13th and 17th of this
month)
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.samba.internals/57168/match=dlz_bind9+searching+writeable+zones
and
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.samba.internals/57235/match=dlz_bind9+searching+writeable+zones
the current git version should take care of the reverse zone as well.
