I did that, and bind didn't seem(!) to be forwarding the requests, so I just
gave it a different IP address, and told
Bind to leave that IP alone.

Not a biggie, and it's happily responding.

Re: RE: rbldnsd on FreeBSD

[Jeff Peng]

when you run ./rbldnsd -h
you should see:
-b address[/port] - bind to (listen on) this address (required)

So you can bind the rbldnsd to another alias IP address,diff from the IP that 
your BIND server is listening to.
I think there is no conflict between the rbldnsd and the BIND.
