Yes, FreeBSD is vulnerable, and we have informed CERT of that fact, so I
don't know why they have us down as "unknown".  We are preparing an
advisory for tomorrow.  As was the case with BIND, this takes more work
than for many other operating systems since we maintain older versions
in older branches; for instance, 8.4 has 4.2.4.
