 1st) Is OpenPKG ver of bind chroot enabled (-t chrootdir) ?

No, not out of the box. If you really want this you have to establish your
own chroot(2) environment under /foo for BIND and use bind_flags=... -t
/foo ... in rc.conf.

 2nd) opkg_bind uses opkg[-r] user.
  Does I gain more security using an distinct user and chrooting opkg_bind ?

Well, theoretically yes, practically no IMHO. This everyone has to
decide on his own. Security is always a compromise between not doing
anything and allowing everything. I personally think OpenPKG's default
of using the dedicated restricted user is reasonably secure here.

 3rd) What does option with_dlz enables ?

It's for serving both zone and meta informations directly out
of a RDBMs like MySQL or PostgreSQL.

It adds the dynamic loadable zones patch.

See http://bind-dlz.sourceforge.net/ for details.
