Hmmm, they (RH) don't have RPMs for that yet. 
I could compile it of course if you think that is necessary.

Now, it's a 8.2.3. No change.

Thanks for the insight :)

Here we go:
update delete b.mx.beffort.lu. A
update add b.mx.beffort.lu. 1 A new.ip.add.ress

And named.conf contains:
zone "mx.beffort.lu" {
        type master;
        file "name2ip/beffort.mx.lu";
        allow-update {
                key key.;
        };
};
