I'm unfamiliar with dtrace and hence what the above implies.

Do these just explain where the undefined symbols come from, or
where they are supposed to be defined?

Thanks, that gets me further and now stumbling on a silly error
in the install phase:

ERROR: Destination '/usr/local/bin/named-compilezone' already exists and is not a symlink

when I already had BIND 9.20.x installed.


Longer-term the question of what we do with BIND in NetBSD will
come up.  I am assuming that we don't want to depend on meson for
a build of NetBSD...  I received a private remark that "ISC has
jumped the shark" with this move.  Perhaps we already roll our
own build setup for the in-tree BIND, and "just" need to adapt
it?
