It's just reporting that the OS has restricted named to having no more
than 1024 file descriptors. This should be more than enough.

It's not, unless your name server happens to need >1024 file
descriptors... :-)

You could consider setting up the logging subsystem to print the
severity of each message when it is logged. That would make it trivial
to tell the difference between debug, info, warning, error, etc
messages.
