Playing around some more shows it's working the way I want when resolving 
requests from other machines on the network. It's only NOT doing it right when 
trying from the system that bind is running on (yes, the same instance is 
listening on 127.0.0.1:53 and 192.168.nn.nn:53).

Still hoping someone has some suggestions.

Also, when I started looking at this I found 'dnsmasq' running. I don't want 
it, I don't need it. I'm running bind. But it's started by "Network Manager", 
and not an init script. I don't see how to turn it off, and if I try to 
uninstall it, it wants to uninstall gnome as well as a bunch of other crap. How 
do dependencies get so screwed up?
