See RFCs 1034 and 1035 on what the additional section's function is. RRs
in this section are required in some cases, and in other cases it's just
useful to include them.

There are various options that can be used to control what is included
in the additional section. See the BIND 9 Configuration Reference
section in the manual for descriptions of these.
