That's true. There's
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-extended-error-16
which look promising, trying to make it possible to distinguish
between the various reasons a recursor might choose to return a
SERVFAIL response. It uses an EDNS option to communicate the
additional information.
As for its implementation status in general or in BIND in
particular I'll admit that I don't know off-hand.
