It's the intended behavior according to the documentation at least;
see http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/axfrdns.html:

    axfrdns provides every record it can find inside the target domain.
    This may include records in child zones. Some of these records (such as
    glue inside a child zone) are essential; others are not. It is up to
    the client to decide which out-of-zone records to keep.

Nothing.
