Not really. There seems to be a certain pattern that always the first
query to a certain name server may time out. Are you sure that the
v6 default route _really_ makes a difference, or is that just
coincidence? Can you reproduce results by re-adding the default etc?

I seriously have not the slightest clue why v6 should make ANY
difference, given that all I'm ssing from these outputs is pure
IPv4 stuff. And it's not some antipathy of your ISP's DNS cache against
AAAA RRs as (if I'm not mistaken) even A RR requests timed out.

One serious problem with debugging is that your ISP's cache might
be the problem, or the remote nameservers. Your box only qeries
the ISP cache, but we have no clue what THIS one does with your
query in order to deliver results.

Can you try installing a local BIND as local cache and use 127.0.0.1
as resolver in /etc/resolv.conf, and try that?
