I thought this has to be it, because I don't find any error in my config and my 
(linux)server has IPv6 assigned to it's IPv4 interfaces without me using IPv6 
at all (nor does my network).

But: The problem still persists. The only difference is the errormessage. With 
9.8.0-P4 I got this error:

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

With version 9.8.1 I now get this error:
dig: couldn't get address for 'root1': not found

But of course, when I do a dig for root1 I get the IP for it just fine.
The trace-option does something strange which is not happening if I do all the 
steps of a trace with dig one by one manually.
