Its "named.conf" file doesn't list any "forwarders" any more, and
"forward-only" is gone, but it still has a leftover "recursion yes"

actually "recursion yes;" is the default, so if you remove it, it stays set

recursion is the feature that allows BIND to resolve domains not configured
locally, you surely need it enabled.
