I run serveral DNS servers based on FreeBSD+bind. One of them is FreeBSD 7.3-STABLE and bind-9.4. It's public primary server for two zones (one forward and one reverse) and public secondary for several others; plus it's recursive caching DNS server for users, low-loaded. I've just updated ports tree and installed dns/bind96. /usr/local/sbin/named-checkconf shows no messages at all. I've restarted bind using ports version. All seems OK. I'll write back if problems arise. About upgrading bind version in RELENG_7, I'm for it. Btw, I run one bind96 server/4.11-STABLE for long time (and even one bind95/4.11-STABLE) and six 6.11-STABLE servers with stock bind93 ;-) Never had a problem with them.
