servfail, but on only one interface

Hi.  I'm relatively experienced with bind, and have recently upgraded to
9.1.0.

Upon running the new binary, I can query to one interface, 'dummy0', and
get expected results, but querys to the 'eth0' interface return
ServFails, and I can't determine why.

The configuration file is relatively clean (quoted by '#'):

# options {
#     directory "/var/named/zones";
#     // ** an 'allow-transfer' list edited out **
#     files 128;
# };
# 
# 
# logging {
#     channel syslogd {
#         syslog local0;
#     };
#     channel logfile {
#         file "/var/named/named.log";
#         print-time yes;
#     };
#     category config { syslogd; };
# };
# 
# zone "." {
#     type hint;
#     file "zoneinfo";
# };
# 
# include "/var/named/generated_named.conf";
# // this has nothing but zone declarations.

...and the log file yields at startup:
