It complains about the absence of $TTL, but it doesn't "make you do it".
How many other sites got burned by non-RFC compliant SOA record formats
that used to work in every prior bind 8 / bind 4 version? I refuse to

and a bourne shell script to examine all our zone files and fix the ones
that needed fixing.
