It is a shame. I have a zone already created and inside this zone I
Need to create A entries pointing to the same ip address.
Example:
test001 IN A 127.0.0.1
test002 IN A 127.0.0.1
test003 IN A 127.0.0.1
...
testN IN A 127.0.0.1
N is a number between 001 and 999.
Thank you!

No. Not possible in BIND. The DNS protocol defines a wildcard mechanism,
but it only matches 1 or more whole labels.
Of course, you could always just put 1 or more wildcard records into
"domain" itself and not have any subzones. The wildcard would match the
name "test001.domain" and anything else under "domain" that wasn't
already explicitly defined.

I know of no such patch.
