> Does the above bind version have the recently announced "ispig" bug?

I don't know of a "ispig" bug. The two released recently for BIND 8.x
are called "tsig" and "infoleak" at
http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind-security.html

All versions of BIND 8 before 8.2.3 (including betas) have these bugs
present.

You can update to 4-STABLE using the instructions at
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cutting-edge.html.

Or, you can install the port of 8.2.3 from /usr/ports/net/bind8 (make
sure you have a recent copy of the ports tree) which will install BIND
8.2.3 under /usr/local. You need to then use /usr/local/sbin/named
instead of /usr/sbin/named.
