Version statement...

I don't understand the problem...

Before I changed my 'named.conf' and added a 'version "BIND";' line to
the options section - I got...

dig @localhost chaos txt version.bind +short
"9.9.1-P2"

Stopped and restarted BIND, Now I get...

# dig @localhost chaos txt version.bind +short
"Porcupine Meatballs\0101 pound ground beef chuck\0101 cup instant rice
\0101 egg\0101 onion, diced\0101 can tomato soup\010salt and pepper
\010Mix ground beef with rice, egg, onion, salt and pepper. Shape into
balls about the size of golf balls and place in 2 quart baking dish."

"named -v" gives 
BIND 9.9.1-P2

Your recipe may vary?
