The "using SOA MINTTL instead" means that teh zonefile lacks "$TTL" at zone
top, but instead of refusing to load as previous bind-9 did, it warns. Strange
however that it says so about a slave zone ... Is there a possibility
of mixup here ?

No they are gone with bind-9. There is a class "general" that seems to
occur :
May 8 19:52:39 ns named[9648]: general: running
( not shure of loglevel to get this printed)
In general, the logmessages are quite different from bind-8. Sometimes
it's something lacking, but mostly it's better(imho).

As regards to the $TTL message, you _might_ have an left over file
from a previous nameserver ?
My /etc/syslog.conf has the following set up for 'daemon' :
daemon.debug /var/log/daemon
