Comment:

 I understand the problem, it is there once you switch to OpenDNSSEC. So,
 it's a one-time problem.

 I acknowledge it is an issue, but I also think it has a side effect. It
 can screw up the soa serial policy. The output serial cannot be guaranteed
 to be unixtime, counter or datecounter anymore, because the input serial
 is an arbitrary value.

 Not sure if this side effect is a problem for other (future) users.
 Technically, it doesn't break anything. Policy wise, it may.

 Nevertheless, I think it is more important that it does not break
 technically when you switch to OpenDNSSEC, so I have applied the patch in
 r3650.

 Thanks!
