With bind-9.3.6-20.P1.el5_8.6 on CentOS 5.9 behind a Juniper SSG140:

[ts at dns01 ~]$ dig @localhost +short rs.dns-oarc.net txt
rst.x996.rs.dns-oarc.net.
rst.x1956.x996.rs.dns-oarc.net.
rst.x2442.x1956.x996.rs.dns-oarc.net.
"Tested at 2013-03-01 16:18:18 UTC"
"x.x.x.3 sent EDNS buffer size 4096"
"x.x.x.3 DNS reply size limit is at least 2442"
[ts at dns01 ~]$

IPv6 works equally well:

[ts at dns01 ~]$ dig @localhost6 +short rs.dns-oarc.net txt
rst.x3827.rs.dns-oarc.net.
rst.x4049.x3827.rs.dns-oarc.net.
rst.x4055.x4049.x3827.rs.dns-oarc.net.
"x:x:x:x:x:x:x:7509 sent EDNS buffer size 4096"
"x:x:x:x:x:x:x:7509 DNS reply size limit is at least 4055"
"Tested at 2013-03-01 16:21:29 UTC"
[ts at dns01 ~]$
