Interestingly enough, I was debugging this very issue earlier today on a
BIND 9.3.1 authoritative nameserver.
I get a "server reload successful" in reply to the reload command and
nothing in reply to a reconfig. Zones listed in the config file are
not retransferred (I deleted 10.in-addr.arpa just to see) and the new
zones added are not transferred either. Server returns SERVFAIL for
requests.
I've not come to a resolution just yet. I hate to go gunning down the
server to force the issue...
