Good, because Solaris 2.6 has major problems with threading,
amongst many other things.

Yup.

The best thing I can suggest is to read the article "Upgrading to
BIND 9: The Top Nine Gotchas" at
<http://sysadmin.oreilly.com/news/dnsandbind_0401.html>, read the
BIND 9 Administrators Reference Manual at
<http://www.nominum.com/resources/documentation/Bv9ARM.pdf>, the BIND
FAQs at <http://www.nominum.com/resources/faqs/bind-faqs.html>, and
fourth edition of the book _DNS and BIND_ by Paul Albitz & Cricket
Liu, published by O'Reilly & Assoc. (available via the page at
<http://www.dns.net/dnsrd/books.html>).
