I recommend having an empty public view of your private zone, so that
external queries succeed with NXDOMAIN / NODATA. Returning REFUSED for a
private zone causes retries, and not responding at all causes even worse
problems such as EDNS fallback attempts. I haven't tried delegating to
RFC1918 addresses, but that is likely to cause similar weirdness.
