If the OP doesn't need any bind-specific feature then why not use djbdns 
which has a better security track record. djb software are built from the 
ground up to be secure (as is possible), he also splits the "program" 
into smaller executables, each having a specific job thus making each of 
them secure a simpler task. Whilst bind and sendmail have made 
substantial efforts to be more secure, they are still built on legacy and 
bloated monolithic code.
