Many people have reported this problem, but no one has been able to
follow up on getting it fixed.

... but only for the short term. Development has stopped on BIND 8,
and I'm planning to deprecate the BIND 8 ports now that FreeBSD 4.x
has been EOL'ed. BIND 9 is not even the wave of the future, it's now
the present, and if it's not working for you it's incumbent on you to
contact the bind-users@isc.org list and do what you can to help
diagnose this problem, and test the fixes.
