Seconded. I find that net-dns/bind is good for authoritative dns servers
and for its tools so it tends to get installed even on laptops. Gentoo
does not start daemons on install so really no need to have a fragile
separate package only for bind provided tools.

fwiw, net-dns/unbound is a good choice for a resolver even if you are
running in a systemd environment.
