Please, don't top post, it's hard to keep track of what I've said.
No, it means get the latest source RPM for bind:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/SRPMS/bind-9.5.0-33.P1.fc9.src.rpm
rpm -Uvh the source RPM.
That should get you a setup in /usr/src/redhat/ for the build to a
binary RPM.
Then, cd to the specs directory and issue
rpmbuild -bb bind.spec (or whatever the .spec filename is)
And see if any dependencies need to be addressed. Once the dependencies
are done, you should be able to issue that command and get the updated
RPM in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 (or whatever your arch is).
Then you can install that RPM just like any other.
This gets you an RPM managed version of BIND on your system. Instead of
compiling from a tarball.
