The negative response includes the optional NS records.
My custom named has logging that says:
FORMERR: NS name matches domain name.
This new logging is not committed yet. If you have a good suggestion for
improving this specific logging message, please let me know. (Maybe "It
has a referral to itself."?)
The comments in the lib/dns/resolver.c code (where this FORMERR is
coming from) say:
/*
* We already know ns_name is a subdomain of fctx->domain.
* If ns_name is equal to fctx->domain, we're not making
* progress. We return DNS_R_FORMERR so that we'll keep
* trying other servers.
