At last here, BETA7 come with a populated /var/named.

/junk/tmproot/var/named
/junk/tmproot/var/named/dev
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/master
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/slave
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/PROTO.localhost.rev
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/PROTO.localhost-v6.rev
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/named.conf
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/named.root
/junk/tmproot/var/named/etc/namedb/make-localhost
/junk/tmproot/var/named/var
/junk/tmproot/var/named/var/dump
/junk/tmproot/var/named/var/log
/junk/tmproot/var/named/var/run
/junk/tmproot/var/named/var/run/named
/junk/tmproot/var/named/var/stats

we've used /var/named for ages without this layout.
Is this really needed?
This breaks our update plans.
Also, I think this is not well documnted on UPDATING
