Which version of MaraDNS are you using?  Newer versions have fixed the
issues with RD and RA bits being correctly set.

If you're not using version 1.3.07.09, update.  I *think* I fixed the
RD/RA stuff in the 1.2 branch also, but 1.3 has a number of updates
and is almost entirely backwards compatible with 1.2 (the only issues
being obscure stuff like having ~ in TXT records)

I would almost recommend updating to Deadwood [1] here, but am working
on the bit where you locally resolve a particular domain with Deadwood
right now.

Next week sometime, I will post a follow-up telling you how to
transfer this particular configuration to Deadwood.

Thanks for the motivation to finish up the feature I'm implementing
right now in Deadwood.

[1] http://maradns.blogspot.com tells all; Deadwood is the new DNS
code that will eventually become a part of MaraDNS 2.0, hopefully late
this year.
