I think this means you are missing a "reverse mapping" for DNS 127.0.0.0
addresses.
In your named.conf, you need a line like

    primary 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa pz/127.0.0

and the file pz/127.0.0 might look like:

@    IN    SOA    ns.domain.com. hostmaster.domain.com. (
                                1       ; Serial
                                28800   ; Refresh
                                7200    ; Retry
                                604800  ; Expire
                                86400)  ; Minimum TTL
                        NS      ns.domain.com.
1                       PTR     localhost.
