I know thie situation you're talking about.

The simple solution is to split your authoritative and caching
nameservers, so that only *external* hosts see your authoritative
nameservers (with the new DNS records) whilst all your internal hosts and
processes use a caching nameserver that does not know anything special
about domains for which you are authoritative.

Even on a single machine, you can do this by running two copies of BIND.
BIND experts might be able to tell you how to do it with a single
instance; I've never really looked into it.
