 I should add that this problem also affects the bind9 port in FreeBSD
 4.  I'm not sure whether it effects the BIND 8 install in the base
 FreeBSD 4 system (I suspect not [1], but I'm not immediately in a
 position to verify it).
 
 Another good way to demonstrate the problem is with dig, which suffers
 from the same problem as named
 
 The command
 
 dig @a.gtld-servers.net foo.com
 
 will fail to get a response, because a.gtld-servers.net is
 IPv6-connected.

 [1] I note that /usr/bin/dig doesn't suffer from this on FreeBSD 4.10,
 but that /usr/local/bin/dig (built from the bind9 port) does; hence
 the suspicion that BIND 8's named won't suffer from this either.
