Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.7.3.dfsg-1~squeeze7

When using bind9 as a resolver it will fail to resolve *.example.org
when DNSsec is enabled in the resolver. So when resolving
'www.example.org' relies on resolving '*.example.org', the RR won't
be found.


Below an example taken from /var/log/syslog (UTC + 2).
Here bind tries to find the AAAA and A records for
'www.nuonexclusief.nl'.

'nuonexclusief.nl' does resolve.


Apparently this has been fixed in 6-ESV-R6, 9.7.5 and 9.8.2,
which don't seem to be available on Debian.
A discussion in xs4all.general shows that the newer versions of
Bind do correctly resolve the address.

I'm using Debian stable with Linux version 2.6.32-5-686
