odd bind problem

[Mark Haney]

I've got a newly installed F10 box that is running BIND as a slave.
I've been seeing something really odd, though.  About every 6 or 7 days
DNS recursion fails.  There are no real error messages, but suddenly I
can query any record we are SOA for (we host a couple dozen zones for
customers) but we can't query, say www.google.com from that server.  We
get a SERVFAIL.

At first I thought it was due to a package update, but this has happened
3 times in 3 weeks and is unacceptable for a slave server.  Any idea
where to begin debugging this problem?  Anyone else seen this?
