I note that 4.4-Release is still using 8.2.4, and since I haven't updated my sources for quite a while so I'm not sure if that has changed any. But given that BIND started out as the "Berkeley Internet Name Daemon", and that AFAIK much of its development still occurs on FreeBSD, doesn't it make sense to move in that direction since v9 seems to be fairly well-accepted these days? I've gotten stuck with multiple versions of BIND in FreeBSD before and I'd much rather just use the stuff that's part of the base distribution as it's more foolproof to update and keep track of.
