Does Tor use the system DNS configuration? In other words, if I would run a local Bind daemon, would my tor exit use it? Is that bad for the safety of the tor user, as the Bind daemon effectively becomes an audit log of all domains visited by tor users?
Running a local bind or unbound is probably a smart thing to do, and if you put 127.0.0.1 into /etc/resolv.conf tor will use that.
A local caching nameserver will improve performance of course. What are recommended policies to ensure the cache isnt useful to adversaries?
