I'm not sure.  It's derived:

load_rc_config $name

# Updating the following variables requires that rc.conf be loaded first
#
required_dirs="$named_chrootdir"        # if it is set, it must exist

named_confdir="${named_chrootdir}${named_conf%/*}"

I don't think that I did a particularly good job of making it work
for all instances.  It's more of an opening move to get this working
properly wherever the admin chooses to put the named chroot.  I'm
still expecting comments from Doug Barton.

This is specifically rndc (not named) that fails to find its key
or config if you choose to use a chrootdir that isn't the default.
