iirc, all I did at the time was to read the ports Makefile and other 
relevant files, then portinstall -p and select "Replace base BIND with 
this version" when the options screen is displayed.
Then restart named and check that everything is working like it should.

dig @localhost +short porttest.dns-oarc.net TXT
will hopefully now give a result that includes the word GREAT.
