That's because pre newlock2 branch "libpthread" doesn't work with a
NetBSD-current kernel any more. You will need "libpthread" from
NetBSD-curren in the sandbox. Try copying it to e.g. "/usr/local/lib"
and add "/usr/local/lib" to "/etc/ld.so.conf" in the sandbox. If you
run "ldd /usr/sbin/named" it should use the "libpthread" in that
directory.

I don't think so.

        Kind regards
