Comment:

 I look at a source code of Tor, version 0.2.4.14 alpha.
 And found this lines;

 File is /src/or/dnsserv.c
 Line 87 to 98,

   for (i = 0; i < req->nquestions; ++i) {
     if (req->questions[i]->dns_question_class != EVDNS_CLASS_INET)
       continue;
     switch (req->questions[i]->type) {
       case EVDNS_TYPE_A:
       case EVDNS_TYPE_AAAA:
       case EVDNS_TYPE_PTR:
         q = req->questions[i];
       default:
         break;
       }
   }

 Maybe, add these 2 line will do a job...
 case EVDNS_TYPE_MX:
 case EVDNS_TYPE_TXT:

 And they (Tor Project Devs) said in source code,
 "None of the questions we got were ones we're willing to support."

 Seems like we can't expect an update about this :-(
