"include" the my_new_zones.dat into your named.conf... my entire
named.conf on the sample system reads:

====SNIP====
options {
        directory "/etc/namedb";
        dnssec-enable yes;
        dnssec-validation yes;
        new-zone-file "/etc/namedb/managed.zone.list";
        key-directory "/etc/namedb/keys";
};

include "/etc/namedb/zone.list";
====SNIP====

Note that the syntax for this set of tools (dynamic zone creation) is a
bit in flux and may be completely changed between 9.7.2 and 9.7.3. The
functionality will be there, but it might be a bit different in
implementation.. (beware!)
