I've experienced the exact same thing with 8.4.4 on 4.9-RELEASE-p2. It
actually filled up /var once. It was doing it randomly, now it seems to
contain itself to startup and only for about 20-30 seconds. Then it will
mysteriously stop and DNS works fine.

I also tried the same thing, got the same result.

Just letting you know you're no the only one. =) The real question is
whether this a BIND problem or a FreeBSD problem.
