Are your local names in their own zone? If so, then check out using "forwarders" and "forward". I'm not forwarding DNS queries by default in my configs, but something like this probably would work...
Yes, I have a local domain with the names defined in their own zone file. In addition I also have the reverse set up to map IP to name.
zone "localzone" { type master; file "localzone"; forwarders { none; }; }; ...

Specifying "none" for forwarders in the localzone section should turn off forwarding for the localzone zone. If that doesn't work, I'm sure there's some slight variation that should. Check out the BIND Administrator Reference Manual (file:///usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.1/arm/Bv9ARM.html on my RH9 system), section 6.2.14.2.
Thanks, that didn't seem to work.

This entry looks like the following:
zone "localhost" IN {
type master;
file "localhost.zone";
allow-update { none; };
forwarders { none; };
