Well, there may very well be a bug here, but since you have changed 2 things at
once, if there is a bug it would be hard to tell whether it's something to do
fundamentally with the forwarder logic or just a configuration-file parsing
bug.
Does forwarding work with BIND 8.2.2-p5 with *exactly* the same config file you
were using with BIND 8.1.2? That would help narrow down the problem.
By the way, BIND 8.2.3 is now officially released. Maybe this is a bug that's
already been fixed.
