I also confirm this bug.

More over I would suggest to raise this bug to an important.

Whenever user tries to use bind9 as recursive dns (i think it is about a half 
of use cases) 
and when that user have only IPv4 connection (i think it is 90% of use cases 
now) user will 
get a lot of network error messages in a log as it will not be able to connect 
to IPv6 NS hosts:

фев 26 15:25:41 bind named[72]: error (network unreachable) resolving 
'www.debian.org/A/IN': 2001:41b8:202:deb:1a1a:0:52c3:4b69#53
фев 26 15:25:41 bind named[72]: error (network unreachable) resolving 
'org/DNSKEY/IN': 2001:500:40::1#53

The only way to avoid this, is to run bind9 with -4 option. Theoretically it 
should be 
done by specifying it in /etc/default/bind9 file in OPTIONS option.

But this does not work.

So approximately 45% of users are not able to get rid of error messages in 
error log.

This is really bad, I think.

Please fix it. The solution is known. Just test and apply it!
