Thanks for reporting this in detail.
However, as you likely know, outside of security issues (and any regressions
caused by those changes), LTS can only consider backporting patches that
address critical functionality.
I have never used pdns-recursor and I understand that such judgments are
rather subjective, but would a typical user consider this issue to be
critical?

ps. I also note that when bullseye was LTS, pdns-recursor was marked as
end-of-life at some point in that cycle. This may be relevant and/or jog
the memory of someone else, so I mention it here. (However, this may have
simply been an artefact of whatever version that ended up in bullseye;
large refactors often make backporting patches from the latest version
too complex to safely attempt.)
