BIND is also one of the most exploited services in existance.. it's gotten better, and there are also alternatives but, it's been a problem in the past and is still not as much of a no brainer as running your own apache or, even mysql.. bottom line is, it should be chroot jailed, and you should stay on top of bugs and patches.
