I suspect it might also help to:

1: Report which OS and version you are running bind on. For example, 
bind 9.4.1-P1 running in production as external caching and 
authoritative for 5 internal zones on  2 Red Hat RHL5 i386 and x86_64 
servers, plus ditto FC6 i386 test machine is utterly stable;

2: attach gdb (or truss, or whatever) to a running bind process (the 
named binary must have been compiled without stripping, or on Red Hat 
you need to have installed debuginfo rpms); go away and come back when 
it fails and submit backtraces.

Best,
