        It always was.  Named now uses connected UDP sockets so the
        error codes make it back from the kernel.

        To disable the use of IPv6 use "named -4".  I would however
        recommend that you get yourself IPv6 connectivity instead.

        Unless you have a firewall or NAT that has trouble with
        EDNS packets of particular sizes you should not need to set
        these.  If you do need to set these then you really should
        look at replacing/reconfiguring the offending box.

        The problem here is "too many timeouts".  This may or may
        not be related to EDNS.

        Which are perfectly understandable if you don't have IPv6
        connectivity.
