Hi!

I'm unable to resolve two domain names:
    pause.perl.org
    releases.mozilla.org

Everything else works just fine. I've this issue on several servers
located in different countries for a long time. All servers use Hardened
Gentoo and latests stable djbdns package available for Gentoo. I've tried
to switch off all custom patches used in Gentoo for djbdns by default -
this doesn't solved this issue.

I suspect this issue related to CNAME-based load balancing, but have no
proof and, anyway, no matter what's the reason is I need to resolve these
domains using dnscache. :(
For now I use static records for these domains in /etc/hosts as workaround.

home ~ # dnsip pause.cpan.org
195.149.117.110 
home ~ # dnsip pause.perl.org
dnsip: fatal: unable to find IP address for pause.perl.org: timed out
home ~ # dnsip releases.mozilla.org
dnsip: fatal: unable to find IP address for releases.mozilla.org: temporary failure
home ~ # dnsip google.com
74.125.67.100 74.125.45.100 209.85.171.100 

First and last are just an examples of working dnsip/dnscache. :)
