I guess we won't have to worry about increasing traffic loads on that
machine. It looks like sun changed something in the resolver library
starting in 2.5.1. Whether that maps to a specific release in bind I don't
know.
BTW, m&m.mit.edu also fails on these machines. This name I'm particularly
fond of and I for one refuse to surrender to this egregious act of the bind
police by continuing my support for persecuted domain names such as
m&m.mit.edu and who's_there.mit.edu, even in the face of changing source
code. I encourage others to do the same.
