I use my own dynamic package because I only need the ldap backend.

If I understand PowerDNS correctly these config files should not be 
needed in the jail, because to use pdns_recursor you have to edit the 
pdns.conf file and set the recursor options 
(allow-recursion=<subnet>, lazy-recursion=yes, recursor=<ip>:<port> I 
think) correctly. So it doesn't rely on these files.
