"      if(sendmsg(dc->d_socket, &msgh, 0) < 0 && g_logCommonErrors) 
        g_log<<Logger::Warning<<"Sending UDP reply to client "<<dc->getRemote()<<" failed with: "<<strerror(errno)<<endl;

Is what PowerDNS Recursor would log under similar circumstances. This
requires you to change the log-common-errors setting from the default.

We're working on it.  As it stands, qname minimization requires workarounds
to make it viable.  (Re-)standardization is also still going ont.  But it
will happen eventually.
