There has been some discussion of late about DNS MTU sizing and EDNS0 
"fall-back".
I've found another "culprit" in the program DNSMASQ - distributed with 
FedoraCore 10
and later versions of RedHat.

to wit:

      -P, --edns-packet-max=<size>
             Specify the largest EDNS.0 UDP packet which is supported  by  the  
DNS  for-
             warder.  Defaults to 1280, which is the RFC2671-recommended 
maximum for eth-
             ernet.

Is there any interest in revisting this RFC or should we be happy with a 
functional limit
on EDNS0 message size being 1280 bytes?

I could talk to the Fedora maintainer to see if we can change the default
using a /etc/sysconfig/dnsmasq parameter.
