Yes, there are a couple of things you're missing.
In .../src/port/linux/Makefile.set, add the line
'DESTDIR=/tmp/bind-installed'
BEFORE you do any of the above:
make links
make clean
make depend
make
make install
The instructions say that you can also do the following, of which you
only did the FIRST half. I have not tried this, for various reasons:
make DST=/tmp/bind-installed SRC=`pwd` links
cd /tmp/bind-installed
