no, this is a hard fault, over 2 days. 

I do, from the machine, 

dig abcxyz.com mx

and get the google domain names, then in the ADDITIONAL section, I get their A records.

I also 

dig @ns1.google.com  <some goog mx domain> 

and an A record is returned for each MX domain name. 

no CNAMEs anywhere, except in BIND's confusion.
