Hi,

I'm trying to fully IPv6-proof my home network, and currently using
test-ipv6.com as a starting benchmark.  It has flagged that my local
resolver, dnscache in this case, is unable to perform a DNS lookup to an
authoritative server that is only reachable via IPv6.

Indeed, this does appear to be the case; if I run:

$ dig @127.0.0.1 ds.v6ns.test-ipv6.com

(with dnscache listening on 127.0.0.1:53/udp) I get SERVFAIL.  However,
performing the lookups by hand (resolving each part of the chain by hand and
pointing my queries directly at the authoritative servers), or replacing
127.0.0.1 with the IPv4 or IPv6 addresses of my ISP's resolvers, I get the
expected result (an AAAA record of 2001:470:1:18::2, and an A record of
216.218.228.114).

I can provide dnscache logs and straces if required, but this appears to be
a fairly trivial bug to reproduce.
