BIND split-view DNS config problem

binddomain-name-systemsplit-dns

We have two DNS servers: one external server controlled by our ISP and one internal server controlled by us. I'd like internal requests for foo.example.com to map to 192.168.100.5 and external requests continue to map to 1.2.3.4, so I'm trying to configure a view in bind. Unfortunately, bind fails when I attempt to reload the configuration. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but I can't figure out what it is.

options {
        directory "/var/cache/bind";
        forwarders {
         8.8.8.8;
         8.8.4.4;
        };
        auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035
        listen-on-v6 { any; };
};
zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/etc/bind/db.root";
};
zone "localhost" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.local";
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.127";
};
zone "0.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.0";
};
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.255";
};
view "internal" {
      zone "example.com" {
              type master;
              notify no;
              file "/etc/bind/db.example.com";
      };
};
zone "example.corp" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.example.corp";
};
zone "100.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        notify no;
        file "/etc/bind/db.192";
};

I have excluded the entries in the view for allow-recursion and recursion in an attempt to simplify the configuration. If I remove the view and just load the example.com zone directly, it works fine.

Any advice on what I might be missing?
