The backend access shared libs are linked into bind. If the backend
code were statically linked, that would be sufficient reason to reject
things out of hand.

With the change, 9.4.2 Depends on:
  libbind9-30, libc6 (>= 2.7-1), libdb4.2, libdns32, libisc32, libisccc30,
  libisccfg30, libldap2 (>= 2.1.17-1), liblwres30, libmysqlclient15off (>=
  5.0.27-1), libpq5, libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8f-1), unixodbc (>= 2.2.11-1),
  zlib1g

which is much too heavy weight for the stock package. so the question
becomes, do we want to have one bind9-dlz package that scrapes all
those dependencies in, or do we want to additionally have some subset
that only scrape in certain pieces? (many admins have issues with "that
other SQL implementation", for example.)
