possibly violation of rfc1034 section 3.6.2 in BIND backend

Description

PowerDNS allows in a BIND zone file this misconfiguration: 

cnametest.test. IN      CNAME   www.lala.de.
cnametest.test. IN      MX      10 mx.test.domain.

This is no problem for PowerDNS because it seems it ignores the MX RR if we dig the name. But we have real BIND slaves. PowerDNS AXFR transfers both RRs to our slaves. But loading the zone on the BIND slaves fails.
