RedHat or third party RPM’s you have chosen to run on RedHat?  RedHat is
notorious for not updating packages they include in the base system and to
the best of my knowledge they haven’t dug these changes out of BIND 9.13 (which
is a development series) and back ported them.  BIND 9.14 is yet to be released.

Now PowerDNS have released their new recursive server and if you happen to have
installed that on RedHat it may have been what you saw.
