It actually tries several servers but we need to set a limit because we need to cope with longer timeouts. Do you suggest to toggle between v4 and v6 addresses? That is if a v6 address fails, first try the next v4 address and it that fails, another v6 address, etc.

I don't see a problem. If you have the private key you can and will use it. I guess your concern is an oracle?

• werner triaged T4228: Leaked FILE from tmpfile() in dns.c dns_trace_open as Low priority.

It seems that this part of the code was not finished. Unfortunately upstream of the dns code is unresponsive and thus we started to maintain the code base by ourselves. There is still an open question whether we should do that to the full extend, in which case we would integrate the code closer into the GnuPG framework with its own logging subsystems.
