  If it helps, I had individually downgraded the following and tested, but
named remained broken until I backed out the block of packages containing the
kernel and gcc. I had individually tried:

[2017-03-12 08:33] [ALPM] downgraded bind-tools (9.11.0.P3-2 -> 9.11.0.P3-1)
[2017-03-12 08:33] [ALPM] downgraded bind (9.11.0.P3-2 -> 9.11.0.P3-1)

No change.

[2017-03-12 09:02] [ALPM] downgraded geoip-database (20170307-1 -> 20170207-1)

No change.

[2017-03-12 09:06] [ALPM] downgraded openresolv (3.9.0-1 -> 3.8.1-1)

No change.

Success.

  So one of the packages in the block upgrade is the culprit. And candidly it
is probably either the kernel or gcc, but that is just a suspicion.

  Should I open a bug, and if so, which package do I open it under?
