'smart' ... I can't imagine that the DNS server you use would matter
to Google, from a 'send to captcha' perspective. I CAN imagine that
the DNS server you use could lie to you about the right RR to send
back, and then push you through some proxy for all manner of good/bad
reasons.
Don't use DNS servers that lie.
