Oh. That could be a problem. I hadn't noticed yet that DNAME resolution 
fails for signed zones if DO=1:

Unbound and BIND get it right:

dig +dnssec _xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.openchaos.org srv @149.20.64.21

;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 49710
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 5, AUTHORITY: 3, ADDITIONAL: 2

;; ANSWER SECTION:
jabber.openchaos.org.	179	IN	DNAME	jabber.i-pobox.net.
_xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.openchaos.org.	0 IN CNAME 
_xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.i-pobox.net.
[...]


DO=1 queries to Google's DNS fail:

dig +dnssec _xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.openchaos.org srv @8.8.8.8

;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 1842
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1


Without DO, it works:

dig _xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.openchaos.org srv @8.8.8.8

;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 61361
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0

;; ANSWER SECTION:
_xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.openchaos.org.	0 IN CNAME 
_xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.i-pobox.net.
[...]


*grumble*

Hauke.
