Hi Stephane,

I think the problem is the recent NSEC+RRSIG parse bug I fixed.  In the
ANY queries that is present and can lead to the problem, the bug is
triggered based on ordering in the packet, and this causes the
randomness for you.

So, it is fixed in subversion trunk and perhaps I should consider making
a bugfix release :-)

Best regards,
   Wouter
