The upgrade not states: "...You could accomplish that by deleting all records in the zone with an SQL query and waiting for a fresh transfer,..."

It shocks me that you suggest a solution which causes interupptions of DNS service for that zone, until the zone is retransfered. Your second workaround "..or (1) disabling IXFR (2) forcing a fresh transfer using pdns_control retrieve example.com (3) enabling IXFR again.." is much better and only a bit more work.
