	The message beow indicates that you are running a old version
	of named with known security flaws.  See:
	http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind-security.html

	As for the cause of the message.  The nameservers for the zone
	in question are broken as they are not RFC103[45] compliant.  I've
	Bcc'd the contact address.  Hopefully the administrators of the
	servers will get them fixed so they stop inflicting their problems
	on everyone else.

	Mark
