Because the standard config is expecting to be talking to servers
that are authoritative. When you are using a forward zone the
server is *not* expecting to be talking to a authoritative server
but rather a caching server and caching servers don't set 'aa'
whereas authoritative servers do. The servers in question are
not setting 'aa' in the answers (indicating that they detected
a error on load) and named is rejecting their answers as bad.
