Yes indeed there is no such feature right now.  We should add a
checkzone, like nsd-checkconf.  Right now you can 'make nsd-mem',
which makes a tool that parses the zone files and prints the total
memory usage, as a side effect this also checks the syntax of the zone
files.  It prints errors in zone file syntax too, so it is a good
workaround.

Best regards,
