	Oh.  Let me understand if I've got this right -- earlier versions 
of BIND will return SERVFAIL when faced with a DNAME response, even 
if they're just a caching server?  So, in order to get the benefit of 
DNAMEs, we have to wait until everyone in the world has upgraded to 
BINDv9 (or some other nameserver that supports DNAMEs, or at least 
doesn't SERVFAIL when it hits them)?
