I've been combing for this bit of information all day. Apparently the options variable in the init.d script dont really get used, there where I dropped the "-4" at first. After undoing that change, and dropping the "-4" argument into the default/bind9 file, all that ipv6 nonsense is gone. Thanks Mercy! I've been combing for this bit of information all day.

Do you mean that your resolver was trying to send queries over IPv6? Unless your box has a publicy routable IPv6 address, it shouldn't do that. This is a common bug in some older Linux distros, that's been fixed in recent versions of glibc. What sort of IPv6 errors were you seeing in your logs?
