They fail when presented with EDNS version 1 queries and unknown
edns options.  EDNS version 1 behaviour has been documented for
nearly 15 years.  Is it that hard to return BADVERS rather than
FORMERR?  It's like the vendor never read RFC 2671 or RFC 6891 which
obsoletes RFC 2671.

How are these servers passing acceptance testing?  It takes two
simple tests to show a problem.

        dig +edns=1 zone @server (expect BADVERS to be returned)
        dig +nsid zone @server   (expect the unsupported option to
                                  be ignored or NSID to returned)

        dig +ednsopt=code[:content] zone @server 
        (send a arbitary EDNS option with specfied content)

eia.gov need to go back to their nameserver vendor and get these
issues fixed.
