All well and good, but it didn't stop a lookup on NS for
com. returning g.gtld-servers.net. as one of the authoritative
nameservers for that zone with the same IP address as
g.root-servers.net...
Is my local resolver screwed (not particularly likely, unless I've
_really_ broken something) or was the migration process less than
perfect?

Would it be silly to set up a.gtld-servers.net and f.gtld-servers.net
to point at the same IPs, for the sake of consistancy, and move those
later?
