As of BIND 9.3.2, lib/isccfg/{namedconf.c,parser.c}

It was quickly found by looking at the output of:

$ tar zxf bind-9.3.2.tar.gz
$ cd bind-9.3.2
$ ls
$ cd lib
$ find . -type f | xargs grep -i parser | more

namedconf.c relates to BIND-specific options and their values.

parser.c does the actual 'dirty work' of doing the parsing (lexical
scanning, etc).
