This does sound like the same problem Jim Housley just reported,
assuming by "unpublished" he means "not yet delegated from the
parent zone".  And it's worrisome to me since there are several
domains here intentionally configured the same way, and which
have been running that way happily for a few years now.
(Authoritative servers are all secondaries, transferring data from
a primary that's not authoritative.)

This has the scent of a new "default" security measure that is
hopefully overridable with a config option.  Time to dig into the
bind docs and see what's changed.  Or ask on bind-users.
