MacPorts bind9 dig not working correctly

The bind9 port doesn't patch this behavior (if you look at the port, there's a configure patch because upstream uses broken glibtool and an atomics patch to allow building w/ older clang versions), so it's almost certainly due to an upstream change.

The Apple provided dig is old enough that it must be BIND 9.16 and the source-built version I tested with is also from the 9.16 tree. But the MacPorts version is from the new 9.18 tree. Unfortunately, I no longer have a source-built 9.18 copy of dig to test with.
