The strict-order option does what it's documented to do, as far as I know. If what you're actually asking is "does the strict-order option still not allow me to give priority to a nameserver which has a different idea of the DNS to the secondary nameserver(s)" then the answer to that is that it still doesn't, and really can't.
The reason for this is that the transport for DNS is unreliable UDP, so if queries for your "special" names go to the first nameserver and get a special answer then sometimes, either the query or the reply will be lost, and time-out, and then get sent to the secondary nameserver, which will reply with a different answer to the one you wanted. Cheers, Simon.
