Unfortunately I don't have time too, but various other mentioned
work-arrounds/replacements isn't what I need/want, personlly.
So I spent some time reenabling auto-chroot, please see
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196520

It just works for me, haven't done much testing. Most of the routines
are taken from former base rc.d/named with little tuning.

I hope this helps for the moment.
