mutliple forward statements

Absolutely (even though the space after the two last zone names _may_
introduce problems).

It's interesting to note that there are two ways to achieve identical
effect - forwarding all DNS queries:

	options { forwarders { xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; }; };

or

	zone "." { type forward; forwarders { xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; }; };

Unless another zone matches the query more specifically (which would
be the case if you set up a master or slave server, for example), both
of these will forward the query to another server.
