No, that's not the problem; BIND simply lets it overflow, computing
<serial> mod 2^32.

I think the real problem is the newline between "ns207.ovh.net." and
"hostmaster.ndsoftware.net.".  This is causing it to treat the latter as a
new record, not part of the SOA record.  And 21600 is being interpreted as
the record type.
