This issue was researched by glebius, and this patch was incorporated by ISC into the next version of BIND. The patch addresses a problem with high-load resolvers which hit memory barriers. Without this patch, running the resolving name server out of memory would lead to "unpredictable results." Of course, the canonical answer to this problem is to put more memory into the system, however that is not always possible, and the code should be able to handle this situation gracefully in any case.
