If you've already installed djbdns I'd leave it. I'm still using it and
a lot of people only migrated away because they needed dnssec. If you
are just running a soho server or desktop you aren't going to come
under the kind of concerted poisoning  attack that ISP caches would
attract. 

It might not be under active development, but it was programmed
very conservatively, and has a security history that's as impressive as
bind's is dismal. Most of the criticism against djbdns are either
myths or don't apply to the dnscache component.  I'd be very surprised
if you have a problem with it.
