Huh?! I have BIND 8.1.2 running under FreeBSD 2.1.0. I don't remember quite
well what exactly I've made to make it build, but it definitely wasn't too
difficult. So if you insist on running an outdated and not quite supported
version of the system, be prepared to spend a couple of minutes porting
modern programs to it.

Sincerely yours
