Yes, this bug can be fixed.
Just find a software developer and pay him some money. Or fix it
yourself, you have the code.
I suppose ISC does not want you to buy a paid support subscription to
fix this one but maybe they do, you could try contacting them.
Oh, wait. You must be wanting this fixed for FREE. Gotcha!
Perhaps a review of what the point of Open Source software is might be
in order?

Hello there,
Due to an accident my local network is missing IPv4 DNS but has IPv6
DNS so it has little impact on accessing the internet.
But I found that neither `dig `nor `nslookup` worked, and reported an
error:
```
C:\Program Files\ISC BIND 9\bin\dig.exe: parse of C:\Program Files\ISC
BIND 9\etc\resolv.conf failed
```
There is actually no "resolv.conf" there, they get the DNS from the
system and if IPv4 DNS is missing it will throw an error. Creating
"resolv.conf" manually also does not prevent the problem.
I noticed that version 9.16 is about to be EOL. I wonder if this BUG
can be fixed before EOL? After all, this is the only version of BIND 9
that still supports the Windows platform.
Best regards,
Gentry
