BIND can return incomplete glue records in some cases, possibly many fewer
than the threshold of overflowing the packet. A scenario I've been testing
is with 2 MX hosts and 12 A records for each. The whole mess won't fit in
one packet. BIND then decides to not include all of the A records for the
2nd MX host. Will qmail go back for those A records if it needs them? And
what if the glue A records sent were for the higher of the two MX hosts?
Will it handle that (yes, BIND decides which MX records get glue records
after it does order cyclic, so order fixed is apparently going to be
appropriate here).
