Hello Jeremy,
Thank you for your reply.
I plan to send more information to ISC when I have it - FYI
Looks like my response didn't make it out yesterday, so here is another attempt.
Please see my responses within below:

Yes. That is, when we restart named/9.9.1-P3 it works as well as it did since it was installed 10/3/2012

Yes, and I just didn't provide any of those examples (sorry).
That is, I can say that any query (localhost or 3rd party hostnames) results in same outcome of "connection timed out; no servers could be reached".

While do have a localhost zone defined, any of our spot checks for local vs. off-network queries would fail.
Once we restart 9.9.1-P3, everything works again
