Which Bind version?

From this thread:
http://listserv2.cfi.co.ug/pipermail/afnog/2005-May/000759.html,

I think you should try the following:

cd /usr/ports/dns/bind9
make -DWITH_PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND9 install clean

(That will give you bind-9.3.2)

Try again and update us.

The installation of bind-9.3.2 can be undone, so don't fear :-)
