PDNS 4.0.0-alpha2 in Xenial is horribly broken(*) so IMO it seems a bit
of a waste of effort backporting this specific fix, without also
backporting the critical fixes from 4.0.0 alpha 3 and later, which in
turn would be best done by going straight to 4.0.0 release (or 4.0.4+)

PDNS is a fine piece of software, and it's a shame that for many people
their first experience will be using the Xenial package, which may put
them off forever - it nearly did for me.

(*) at least with a SQL backend:

At the moment, it seems the only safe way to run pdns-server on Xenial
is to use the packages from the origin repository:
