	You teach your application to use SRV records and use them
	to order the address records.  This is the best long term
	solution.  It will work regardless of remote nameserver
	setting.

	For local clients you are in luck as you can just set the order
	to fixed as the order you want matches DNSSEC order.  You will
	need 9.3.x however.

1223.   [func]          'rrset-order' partially works 'cyclic' and 'random'
                        are supported.

	fixed is understood (in that the records are always emitted in the
	same order) but the load order is not guaranteed to be preserved.
