In  the  meantime, I was informed by Doug Barton (who maintains the Bind
port  in  FreeBSD)  that  "the  FreeBSD  team is currently investigating
solutions  to  the  problems  brought to light by version 9.1.0 of BIND.
Meanwhile,  our  port  of  BIND  9  has been updated to use BIND version
9.1.1rc1  which, in addition to significant bug fixes contains code that
turns those failure modes into logged warnings".

Those warnings look like this:

Feb  9 13:56:04 tel named[88689]: socket.c:1673: unexpected error:
Feb  9 13:56:04 tel named[88689]: socket.c:1673: unexpected error:
Feb  9 13:56:04 tel named[88689]: internal_accept(): accept() returned peer address family 0 (expected 2)
Feb  9 13:56:04 tel named[88689]: internal_accept(): accept() returned peer address family 0 (expected 2)

It doesn't indeed crash anymore.
Upgrading time, then :-)
