I did another upgrade yesterday, now with some more attention:

Situation before the upgrade:

- I have launch=gmysql in /etc/powerdns/pdns.conf
- I have gmysql-*= options in /etc/powerdns/pdns.d/pdns.local

I believe this is how the installation was written by default in 
powerdns in earlier version(s).

Now, with the simplebind addition, which contains launch=bind

pdns[22264]: Fatal error: Trying to set unexisting parameter 'gmysql-dbname'

launch=bind overrides the any other launch= (be it in pdns.conf or 
pdns.local, if it were there), which makes my mysql backend not work 
after upgrade and leaves pdns guardian in an infinite retry-loop until I 
remove the simplebind include.

Correct syntax: launch=gmysql,bind
