Jeff,

Installed Bind RPM update when released. 
Installed RaQ4-All-Security-1.0.2-9353.pkg when released.

Named still running as root now when DNS is on. 

root     11136  0.0  0.6  2524 1604 ?        S    15:24   0:00 named

Made your suggested changes, restarted named and:

named    11739  0.0  0.6  2736 1796 ?        S    15:32   0:00 named -u named -g named


So it seems the pkg did not do the switch either.
On the Raq2 and Raq1 it was switched to named with the pkg and the rpm upgrades.
