Is it a full-fledged nameserver, suitable enough for MX, A, TXT,

Nope. rbldnsd is only an authoritative server and does not do any resolution
via other servers or caching of records for which it is not authoritative.
Some of the confusion about rbldnsd MIGHT stem from the following page:
https://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/CachingNameserver
Specifically the section: Installing rbldnsd as a Caching Nameserver
The caching there isn't really caching. It's serving from local copies of
rsynced blacklists. It doesn't help that the page which it links to for
a guide, is hosted on a server that is down.
