This turned out to be a slightly different case. It seems that anoncvs
hadn't updated the Makefile in usr.sbin/bind/lib. the old make file
was:

#       $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.14 2001/01/28 01:43:26 itojun Exp $

When I moved it out of the way, anoncvs pulled down the new, correct
Makefile.

The files in usr.sbin/bind/lib/CVS all seem to be correct.

This seems to happen now and then.
