Since you're new to FreeBSD, and apparently new to BIND, I'd suggest 
that rather than pursue the course you're on that you upgrade to the 
latest version of FreeBSD 5-stable, or the 5.3 RELEASE, or errata or 
security branches if you're more comfortable. BIND 9.3.0 was imported 
into the FreeBSD base system before the 5.3-RELEASE, and is the place 
you should start with BIND, since it's where development is headed long 
term.

Hope this helps,

Doug
