OK, so what the submitter was experiencing wasn't a BIND limitation, but a

Yes.
Is that right?
Absolutely. The UDP packet contained the "truncated"

TCP. Just the same result as one would expect with a
large number of MX entries for a given domain, or for
a lookup of some of the root name servers.
