Unbound does not honor forwarder DNSSEC verification?

[Daisuke HIGASHI]

The issue may not related to bug #681.

Unbound always forwards query with CD=1 to forwarder,
so Unbound doesn't honor forwarder DNSSEC verification (I forgot it!)

So if you disabled DNSSEC validation you will get "insecure" answer.
If you want SERVFAIL for www.dnssec-failed.org  you have to enable
DNSSEC validation.
