not that i know of easily (from logs), nor from collectd's bind plugin
that i've found, though the dns plugin could be expanded to provide
this...however, since that ultimately involves running a sniffer process
on your name server(s), it might be better to just do it yourself if it's
for debug purposes.  something like:
