I don't know that anything changed but I would doubt it.

My experience says that /etc/named.conf is just a symbolic link
to /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf and though bind starts as root, the
user is switched to 'named:named' and this user should be locked to the
chroot, thus all the config/data/pid/proc files etc. should be
under /var/named/chroot
