This is probably a side effect of the fact that the posix capability lsm
is now a module instead of being built into the kernel (it has to be a
module for me to be able to build the realtime lsm). 

This was reported by somebody else some time ago (I think it was a
different daemon, can't remember right now). 

Quick test. Stop named, stop rtload (/etc/rc.d/init.d/rtload stop) and
then try to start named, if it starts then this is the problem. 

One thing you could try, stop the realtime lsm:
  /etc/rc.d/init.d/rtload stop
Disable it
  /sbin/chkconfig --del rtload
Change the start number of the service to be lower than that of named (I
don't have named installed so I don't know). The line that needs to be
changed is at the beginning of the rtload script
(/etc/rc.d/init.d/rtload):

# chkconfig: 2345 98 01

Change 98 to, let's say, 50 or so (assuming that named start after 50),
then enable the service:
  /sbin/chkconfig --add rtload
And do a test reboot. 

If rtload starts before named I think things should be fine.
