I had problems running chrooted bind9.3 with ipv6 on Redhat9. 
I had to add --disable-getifaddrs for ipv6 to work. My named.conf has
'listen-on-v6 {v6:addres;};'. I also had to 'mount  proc $CHROOTDIR/proc"
so that bind could read /proc/net/if_inet6 and also needed to have
'mknod $CHROOT/dev/random c 1 8' to have random for named inside the
chroot.
