Right, but rndc is not chrooted. It's looking in /usr/etc, as indicated by the error message. To extrapolate, it seems reasonable to assume that named is looking in /var/named/chroot/usr/etc for its named.conf, by default, although of course this can be overridden on the command line (or in the init script).
