Keyword: was. No need for bind.
Or wait till you upgrade that 11.4 to 13.1, which I'm also about to do (both are Evergreen versions).
That is unlikely ever to happen here due to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39949 if it ever gets fixed, highly unlikely ever applied to 13.1, same reason I never downgraded to 12.1, 12.2 or 12.3 on my 24/7 box.

server=X.y.z.v server=X.y.z.w
It is a very simple syntax.
Made unclear by example integral to dnsmasq.conf. :-p
I now have dnsmasq running, with 127.0.0.1 the only nameserver line in
resolv.conf. For now, I have one server=
