I recently had a customer on Ubuntu with a BIND version "9.4.1-P1.1", which contained some form of the source port randomization fix. Debian and/or Ubuntu is, as is often the case, playing fast and loose with the BIND version numbers, applying newer patches to older versions so that they can maintain a reference version number.
The problem for that customer was that named kept dumping core. We fixed it by simply compiling from the stock ISC source code, setting configure options to match the filesystem layout that Ubuntu uses. That brought them up to 9.4.2-P2.
I relate this anecdote to show that, no, there is no way to upgrade named to the standard ISC version without compiling it from stock source code. You might be able to look in the Ubuntu sources package to find what configure options they're passing, but that's about it.
