This is "the glue fix". It changes the additional data lookup

algorithm to more closely follow RFC1035, so that root servers will
provide a more complete set of name server glue addresses in ccTLD
referral responses.

For non-referral responses, the server no longer uses glue as
additional data.

For referral responses, the servers now looks for glue A/AAAA/A6 RRs
in the zone where the NS RRs reside, even in the case where this is
different from the zone where the A/AAAA/A6 RRs would have resided had
they been authoritative data.

A6 chains included as additional info may not yet fully follow these
rules.

309. [bug] When sending a referral, the server did not look
for name server addresses as glue in the zone
holding the NS RRset in the case where this zone
was not the same as the one where it looked for
name server addresses as authoritative data.
308. [bug] Treat a SOA record not at top of zone as an error
when loading a zone. (RT #154)
