I couldn't reproduce the problem simply by configuring a secondary
server that has more than two masters like this:

zone "jinmei.org" {
     type slave;
     file "jinmei.zone.bak";
     masters { 149.20.54.162; 203.178.141.194; };
};

and then reloading the server.  There should be some other reason that
triggered the assertion failure in your case.  Can you provide more
details, including a complete copy of your named.conf and detailed
steps to cause the failure?
