Andy,  You do also have the A record glue for elsewhere.example.com in the 
example.com zone, right?  Just checking.

Subject: Answers from subzone even when superzone has a delegation elsewhere

Hi,

I'm running:

9.16.44-Debian (Extended Support Version) <id:cd2b460>

If I have zones example.com and sub.example.com both loaded, but example.com 
contains a record:

sub.example.com. NS elsewhere.example.com.

(i.e. the subzone is delegated to some other server)

is it normal and expected that a query for foo.sub.example.com should be 
answered NXDOMAIN from the auth servers for example.com because the zone 
sub.example.com is also loaded there (and has no "foo" RR), rather than the 
delegation to elsewhere.example.com be followed?

If that is expected, is there configuration that can alter that behaviour, or 
is that RFC required behaviour that should not be altered?

Thanks,
Andy
