I fixed this. We had copied known-good zone files from a production box for 
the testing. However, we did not add records for our new IP address we were 
testing with. Adding the appropriate PTR and A records solved the issue.

What I was doing was testing a BIND 8 setup for split DNS (the term 
split-brain DNS gives me the creeps). Have it working now.  Could have used 
BIND 9, but I keep reading that the new version is a little too tough on 
requiring proper DNS behavior and some clients don't work right with it. 
Haven't really investigated this issue too far yet.
