The key parts are the root hints and the trust anchors. You can see
several such fake root configurations in the BIND 9 system tests (look
in bin/tests/system), e.g., the resolver system test.

Thanks for that.  I took a look in the distribution at the directories you 
mentioned. There is very little explanatory text.  Not so sure someone
would find it useful in setting up their own fake root and a delegation
path.
