Timing considerations make it difficult to have an automatic test
for this in the standard BIND test suite; the RFC requires certain
things to take a very long time.  Unless you modify named to speed
up the process, rolling to a new trust anchor and deleting the old
one takes over a month, which is kind of a drag when you're running
'make check'.  :)

I quite like the idea of setting up a public zone that revokes and
replaces trust anchors periodically.  I don't know of one at present.
The right place to ask is probably the dnssec-deployment mailing list.
