Re: "initializing DST: openssl failure"
Nope.  Not a problem with the includes under named.conf.

It's looking for this file:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openssl-1.0.0/engines/libgost.so

If you're running a chrooted bind9, it can't find this library, obviously.

The kluge for this at the moment is to recreate this directory tree under
your chroot and copy libgost.so there.

After I did that, bind9 now starts up OK.
