Depends on who is asking your nameservers

If the clients are withing 1918 address space you should change
A records to the real 1918-adresses.

If the clients are on Internet and accessing Internet stuff you should
use the real addresses.

If the clients are on Internet and accesses resources behind your NAT (
1918 adresses) you should use the Internet-visible address.

If you combine these you should need to implement views.

Also there is a number of issues where NAT is problematic for
DNS-traffic, the best location for bind is probably on your NAT-box.
