Unless I'm mistaken (which is doubtfull considering how often I see whois 
results with "no nameserver" in crsnic whois) this is not the case. In 
fact I remember hearing about removing requirement to have two 
nameservers back in 1999 when things where still being handled only by 
NSI and ICANN was non-existant.
