	I'm not sure why you want to do what you've indicated here, but
the simple answer is, don't. :)  I will send you my detailed instructions
for installing BIND in FreeBSD.  It should compile right out of the box
without options.  Please note that CERT came out yesterday with an
advisory confirming what some of us on bind-users@vix.com have been
kicking around, namely that your best bet is to first install BIND 4.9.6
to get the improved libs and include files, then install 8.1.1 over the
top to get the improved binaries.  I'll be coming out with an updated list
of my instruction set soon since it was so well received the last time I
posted it.

Hope this helps,

Doug
