Assertion failures means that BIND9 has detected an internal
inconsistency. You should file a bug report.

Well the two zones have different NS RRsets.

named-checkconf and named use the *same code* to parse named.conf files.
Perhaps you're using different version of named-checkconf from the one
that came with the BIND9 distribution? And are you sure the named.conf
files really are identical?
