It turns out that there is an undeclared file conflict with packages
libisc50 and libdns53.  These packages were in unstable/testing at one
point, and made it into lenny-proposed-updates.  If you have not
updated to the most recent BIND packages in lenny-backports, the
package manager tries to install the version from security.debian.org,
leading to an installation error.

You can either update to bind9 1:9.7.0.dfsg.P1-1 via lenny-backports,
or remove the libisc50 and libdns53 packages, and install
1:9.6.ESV.R1+dfsg-0+lenny1 from security.debian.org.

Given that this scenario only affects a very limited number of users,
we do not plan to issue a corrective DSA.  We are sorry for the
inconvenience.

Thanks to Peter Palfrader for bringing this issue to my attention.
It is tracked in #584585.
