BIND 9 is pickier than BIND 8. It's probably rejecting the reverse zone that
contains the entry for 127.0.0.1. What do the logs say? What are the contents
of that zone file?

P.S. Posting just a portion of your named.conf file, consisting of a couple of
out-of-context ACLs and a partial key definition, was totally unhelpful.
P.P.S. BTW, why do you need that "local-servers" ACL when the
"localhost" ACL is already predefined?
