The system is a pdns with mysql backend and the recursor on the same machine, with an example domain with reverse lookup set up on the example. 
Pdns is bound to its local ip address (192.168.1.10) on port 53 and the recursor is on 127.0.0.1, other than that I haven’t changed any settings other those needed to make it work

You are not really giving any insight on how your system is set up. And please do try to reply to the mailing list as well.
