I can confirm this problem as well on RELENG_6.  The "disable-empty-zone"
option was introduced in 9.4.1 and isn't available in 9.3.4:

http://www.isc.org/sw/bind/view/?release=9.4.1#NOTES

* New options: empty-server, empty-contact, empty-zones-enable and
  disable-empty-zone.

Doug, did you test any of this on RELENG_6 before committing?  :-)
