Just returning to this subject. It seems that the server works correctly 
with windows clients. At least, the one windows machine in the house is 
getting IPv4 and IPv6 addresses assigned; A and AAAA records are created 
by the DHCP server along with the respective reverse entries.

I guess that proves the server configuration is perfectly adequate for 
some clients. A Macbook did not work though: the address was issued and 
used but no DNS updates were performed. Androids and Chromebooks all 
seem to be stateless only. It feels very weird that Windows does this 
correctly with BIND, but ISC's own client does not.
