BIND 9.9 has turned on RFC 6303 for RFC 1918 prefixes. This add a empty
zone for 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA and as 3.10.in-addr.arpa is not delegated from
it the forward declaration has no effect as named does not recurse.
You have a number of options:
* Create a 10.in-addr.arpa master zone and delegate 3.10.in-addr.arpa
from it.
* Turn 3.10.in-addr.arpa into a stub zone.
* Slave 3.10.in-addr.arpa.
* Disable the 10.in-addr.arpa empty zone.
* Disable all empty zones.
