I propose that the package be fixed so it is built with 
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--sysconfdir=${PKG_SYSCONFDIR:Q}

It currently uses /etc as a convenience for some, but that is 
inconsistent with pkgsrc.

In addition, I propose that the rc.d script name and the defined "name" 
should be the same, like name="named9". (Can't really rename the 
script to "named" because of conflicts.)

No they are compile time options.

See pkgsrc/mk/platform/DragonFly.mk if you wanted this to be permanent.

Another way would be to share the UID and GID between the two accounts.
