I wasn't aware of that bug report, but after having looked at it now, I 
don't think it is the same issue. I have no problems resolving 
pwouters.fedorahosted.org, even if I limit Unbound to only using the 
BIND upstream server.

Looking at the bug report, the Bind version here is more recent 
(9.9.8P2). I have also never never seen any problems with the 
NSEC3-record or its RRSIG-record.

The error message mentioned in comment #4 is also different:

  info: validator: response has failed AUTHORITY rrset: fedorapeople.org. NS IN
  info: validate(positive): sec_status_bogus

The error I get is:

  info: validate(cname): sec_status_secure
  info: validate(positive): sec_status_secure
  info: message is bogus, non secure rrset uninett.no. NS IN

As far as I can tell, the problem here is caused by extra NS-records in 
the authority-section that do not include the RRSIG element for the 
NS-records, but I can't really say that for certain.
