BIND 9 is easy to chroot, as mentioned before, although I agree
the documentation could be better, I have the same feeling about
some other programs *8-)

Interestingly the RFC addressing root server management doesn't
mention chroot. I suspect with the root name servers it doesn't
matter as they are only suppose to offer the one service, and
your not going to muck around after a compromise, your just
going to redeploy a clean system.
