I noticed that too but I had different versions so I figured it just changed.

This is from man dig:
"       +[no]additional
           Display [do not display] the additional section of a reply. The
           default is to display it."

Did you use the same dig client with the different servers?
Do you see the additional section if you explicitly ask for it on the dig
command?
