This isn't something I've noticed, as I never really have any need to stop
named. After making any changes to the bind configuration, I just use "rndc
reload" rather than stopping and starting the nameserver.

I use squid and haven't had any problems like the one you mention. I suspect
the problem is not with squid.
I think it's more likely that your 100 or so Windows boxes may be doing bogus
DNS lookups in your.domain.local and that could be causing the problem.
Looking at the query logs should resolve whether or not that is the case.
