The quoted definition seems wrong: the binding of a name to address isn't 
necessarily unstable in split DNS setups. And that's not the only game in town 
either: for instance MX and NS records.

How about the following:

Where a corporate network serves up partly or completely different DNS data 
inside and outside its network. There are many possible variants on this; the 
basic point is that the
correspondence between a given QNAME/QTYPE/CLASS tuple and the data for that 
tuple is no longer universal and can depend on where the query is made from or 
which DNS server(s) are queried.
