I've just reread (ie read properly) the responses to my original message. I wrote above "...I need to reformat my configuration files"; this should probably say "...I need to rewrite my configuration files so they are correct". In short, I'd got the syntax of the SOA line incorrect; the old bind was happy with it (although how it understood it, I don't know), but the new bind interpreted it "properly" and rejected it.
