I agree with what Jim said in his reply, plus:

You can't turn off recursion for queries from the outside--at least, not
until BIND 8.2.1 comes out with Steinar Haug's allow-recursion substatement.
Recursion is currently either on or off globally.  So if you want to offer
recursion internally but not externally, you have no choice but to run two
nameds.
