I'm running bind916-9.16.2:
albert(12.1-S)[3] pkg info -o dns/bind\*
bind-tools-9.16.2              dns/bind-tools
bind916-9.16.2                 dns/bind916

Here's what I have in /etc/rc.conf about it:
albert(12.1-S)[5] egrep 'bind|named' /etc/rc.conf
rpcbind_enable="YES"
named_enable="YES"
named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named"

and the pidfile is in /var/run/named/:

albert(12.1-S)[4] ls -lT /var/run/named/
total 8
-rw-r--r--  1 bind  bind    6 May  1 05:03:40 2020 pid
-rw-------  1 bind  bind  102 May  1 05:03:40 2020 session.key

No issues.
