The issue was caused by using GeoIP2 configuration with BIND 9.11
compiled with legacy GeoIP, so there’s no need to test it on your side.

We are just missing the combination of the options that you have used
that caused this, thus the issue.  We would be able to test it ourselves
then.

Thank you,
Ondrej
