This usually means there's a circular dependency somewhere in the
resolution or validation process. For example, we can't resolve a name
without looking up the address of a name server, but that lookup can't
succeed until the original name is resolved. The two lookups will wait on
each other for ten seconds, and then the whole query times out and issues
that log message.

The log message is new in 9.18, but the 10-second delay and SERVFAIL
response would probably have happened in earlier releases as well.
