Thanks for reporting this months ago when you first saw it was broken.
checkdnsrr is working fine but it's testing against bugs.php.net which doesn't
have all the record types it wants. I checked a few big name domains and they
too generally have about half of them. I did find ipv6.comcast.net had all 12,
but it wouldn't be fair to borrow their domain.
I think the answer here is taking some php.net domain, like bugs.php.net or
some new subdomain, and just giving it all these records purely for the sake of
testing. Could be in Jan 2017 when the test was first added that it did have
everything, but apparently not anymore.

FAILED TEST SUMMARY
---------------------------------------------------------------------
bool checkdnsrr ( string $host [, string $type = "MX" ] );
[ext/standard/tests/checkdnsrr.phpt]
that test now fails for months - why do such issues not get fixed or
non-working tests not disabled so that it's easier for the maintainers to fix
remaining ones?
