Buffer underrun? New exploit? Or did my server just crash?

Ladies and Gents,
    I'm having a bad problem.  I'm running Bind 9.2.1     As soon as I
start named, I get the following (and MUCH MORE of the same messages) in
my syslog:

Tons of messages like that from many different ips.  So my question
follows.............   The way bind logs its requests, does the "client
0.0.0.0#port" tell you the source request for named[pid].  I can't think
of anything else.  Also, dns, DOES work if I start it.  I can querry the
server and everything in that nature.  Btw, what does "lame server
resolving" mean?  Also, just for the record, I've upgraded the server
with more ram, but as of the upgrade (i think), I've been getting a
memory leak, and I'm 100 percent positive its comming from named,
because if I keep the service down, syslog is fine, but as soon as I
turnit on, hell breaks loose.  Any suggestions?
 
 
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!
