When I upgraded bind I had trouble writing /var/log too. I moved the bind output logs down one level, /var/log/named-logs/ updating my config and allowing write access to the bind user for the new directory.
I think I had trouble with the pid file, but I think I resolved that by removing the one written by root by the older daemon and allowing named to write a new one, for the new user. Named did not have access to overwrite a file created by root. Your problems may be completely different.
