Having different versions really doesn't matter. You have
minimum versions for DNSSEC (9.3) and DNSSEC w/ NSEC3 (9.6)
but if you are not using DNSSEC there are no problems with
have a BIND 4.8 being a slave to a BIND 9.7.0a1 master or
vica versa provided your zone content has no errors. You
don't want to run BIND 4.8 for other reasons but interop
is not one of them.

BIND 9.5 knows about all of these. I suspect you had them
in the wrong place in named.conf.
