Aside from your name being on some of the IPv6/DNS RFCs & drafts? ;^)

sins, I have to read NANOG as part of my job)

Do you know if the original connection was over IPv4 or IPv6? (Since I
don't know whether your "localhost" is 127.0.0.1 or ::1)

If you don't have authd turned on, do you get delays with a
"telnet -4 localhost 25"? With a -6 connection?

ipfw => FreeBSD ?

We're not using IPv6 at my employer. Yet. Perhaps some experiments
later this year. So I'm not in a position to help test.

But if you can help narrow it down, past evidence suggests Phil Hazel
will be very co-operative in fixing the bugs. :^)
