The shipped namedb files are non-working samples anyway.  So would
a commented-out

# directory /var/namedb

in named.boot make you happy?  Sites interested in not bloating /etc
with the DNS stuff are then free to move it there.  (named.boot itself
is probably static enough to always live under /etc.)
