You have inexplicably obfuscated some important information.

The long and short of the problem (my best guess) is that you should
name your zones distinct from any zone that you are authoritative for.

In other words, our dns is authoritative for tqmcube.com. I cannot name
my rbldnsd zones as subhosts a la rbldns.tqmcube.com. Hence, we use a
dummy clients.tqmrbl.com. There are work-arounds but this is the simple
answer.
