tcp_send: bind(query_source): Permission denied

My guess is that you're running unprivileged and you've set the
query-source to port 53. Don't do that. Unprivileged processes can't
bind to priveleged ports. Did you set the query-source to port 53
because of some firewall rule cruft? Fix the firewall rules.
