lists BIND and NTP as affected packages. Don't the base system versions
of those apps also need patching?
I was told they don't but I believe they do since it's the code inside of
ntp and bind don't check the return code correctly from what I can tell for
the OpenSSL EVP API

Please see: https://www.isc.org/node/373

Unless you are using DNSSEC to verify signatures you're not vulnerable
at all.

As usual for non-critical upgrades I will upgrade the ports first so
that those that need the new version(s) can easily get to them in a
hurry, then upgrade the base(s) over the next day or two.
