hmm, not sure what could be causing this problem. You could try smoothing the UVs in those areas, so they're a bit more uniform.
If not, you could try smoothing your mesh once before you export it.
But to be honest, I would turn off the UVs in ZB, makes things go a bit quicker, then when you're done switch them back on then export.
