The zone file for NS1.CV.NET are misconfigured.  NS records should
point to A records.  But in this case it looks like the config is
NS record to CNAME record to A record.  BIND and the RFC do not
like this.  This is a pretty common mistake.

If it bugs you it can be turned off.  Just take a look at the manual page
for named.conf.

Good luck
