I wouldn't know how that could happen.
However, we see *very* sporadic http connections the mname of a popular zone
(iex.nl) and even have one report of somebody seeing a page hosted on its
mname when trying to visit iex.nl.
But we're very unsure why this is happening. It looks like some kind of
fallback 'if there is no A record for what I'm looking for, try the mname of
the SOA of the zone' perhaps?
It has been too sporadic to investigate properly.
