I wonder why does it do that. 

I have configured a zone to be type forward and expected it to work as
confdigured, not be validated upstream.

(type forward - the fun continues, we don't have access to the origin
nameservers, however tried static-stub with the same result)

I can only guess that this is a part of dnssec functionality - validate
everything even for domains configured locally.

Do people with private versions of domains have this problem too when
using DNSSEC?

I have feeling that we need to reserve TLD for internal private domains
that would be guaranteed not to use DNSSEC at all.

(I have thought of reserving private TLD already before, anyonw wants to
write a RFC?)

that would apparently take ages, neither we nor our customer have contact to
the registrator.

I currently see the only option to disable dnssec on the server, or upgrade
to 9.11 ...

but I'll upgrade the server to debian 8 (bind9.9.5) first.
