You must be starting named before you ifconfig all of your virtual
hosts. That's why it works at startup.
Later when you reload it it will try to listen on every interface
you have, meaning all your virtuals too.
Not sure if you can deal with this in 4.9.x but in 8.1.x there is
an option
options {
listen-on 123.123.123.123;
.
.
}
that will fix this. You'll need to convert your named.boot file
to the new named.conf format but a utility is included that
does a good job of this.
You're going to need to switch to 8.1.x sooner or later so this
is probably a good reason to do it. Compiles out of the box
on 2.2.x FBSD.
