Where did it go wrong?

For starters, consider all the unclued DNS operators that think that TCP/53 is
*only* used for zone transfers, so the block it.  When they get a query from a
user that recurses to a DNSSEC entry that doesn't fit in 512 bytes, they get
back a 'truncated' reply. Their DNS resolver then retries on TCP and gets hosed
by the firewall.
