Additionally you may as well just implement EDNS. The IPv6 response won't be fragmented as it is < 1280 bytes and the IPv4 response is unlikely to be fragmented as it is < 1500 bytes. If you are making DNS queries over IPv6 you are already required to support EDNS as it is a node requirement. All the root servers support EDNS as that is a prerequisite for DNSSEC and if the firewall in front of your recursive server doesn't it needs to be replaced if it can't support a 15 year old extension to the protocol.
