I am looking for a debugging tool, not nslint, for zone files

Several people have write access to the zone files, and one person recently 
added a text comment without a ";" in front of it. I use dlint on zones 
that will load, but this zone would not work. I did not pick up on the 
entry while scanning the file (twice). The data file is huge, and it took a 
while for me to find it, I turned on debugging and read through the 
named.run output to find and fix the problem. I do not want to rewrite my 
zone files to use all the syntactical hints nslint needs, would anyone care 
to contribute a suggestion for some other way to check a zone file?
