Possibly a typo in your named.conf. Actually, I think I may have found it. The new named *insists* that certain files be located in /etc/namedb, even if named.conf tells it to get files from somewhere else. The long pause no longer happens, but it now cannot look up remote names. Is the "hint" file name no longer flexible, i.e. does it have to be a specific name?
