dhclient already runs dhclient-script(8), and passes it the
ISP-supplied DNS IPs, doesn't it ?

To clarify, the question is more a bind one than a dhcp one:  Do I
have to stop bind, rewrite /var/named/etc/named.conf, start bind again
or is there a way to give forwarder IPs to bind through, e.g.,
rndc(8) ?
