Don't start it from the init scripts, start it stand alone with as much
debuging as possible turned on and see what errors it spits out.

Check the man pages, there is probably a command line switch that will
stop named automatically backgrounding as well.

Also check www.isc.org, look for the BIND Administrators Manual, lots of
good stuff in there.
