Hi,
today I updated my bind from 9.4.3_p5 to 9.7.1_p2. I noticed
a few changes in configuration so first I did full backup, then
uninstalled 9.4.3_p5 first, removed all configuration files,
then emerged 9.7.1_p2, and configured it to run from chroot.

1) change cflags in make.conf
2) bootstrap.sh
3) emerge -e system
4) emerge -e world
In other words this is how to build a system from stage 1.
