Section 5.11 says:

...

A signed zone MUST include a DNSKEY for each algorithm present in
      the zone's DS RRset and expected trust anchors for the zone.  The
      zone MUST also be signed with each algorithm (though not each key)
      present in the DNSKEY RRset.  

It should say:

A signed zone MUST include a DNSKEY for each algorithm present in
      the zone's DS RRset and expected trust anchors for the zone.  Each
      authoritative RRset in the zone MUST be signed with each 
      algorithm (though not each key) present in the DNSKEY RRset.  

Notes:

Zones aren't signed (per se), the data sets within them are. But not cut point (NS) and glue.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
This erratum is being rejected as the nomenclature being updated is understood within the community and is used in other DNSSEC specifications.
