Well that wasn't so scary after all.
Dumped the .tar.gz into an 'empty dir'
gunzipped
untarred
cd'd to src - re-read INSTALL

make PREFIX=/usr PIDDIR=/var/run DESTETC=/etc/namedb
DESTEXEC=/usr/libexec DESTRUN=/var/run DESTBIN=/usr/sbin
DESTHELP=/usr/share/misc   
[all one line]

make clean
make depend
make all
rm .settings in 'empty dir'/src

make PREFIX=/usr PIDDIR=/var/run DESTETC=/etc/namedb
DESTEXEC=/usr/libexec DESTRUN=/var/run DESTBIN=/usr/sbin
DESTHELP=/usr/share/misc install 
[all one line]

mkdir /var/named and chown'd it to bind

adjusted named.conf options by adding
pid-file "var/named/named.pid";
statistics-file "etc/namedb/named.stats";

so I could use ndc better --

named -v now shows exactly what I was hoping.

I think I made it to newbie class 2 tonight 

even channels and categories for options make sense right now
