I'm not sure whether this is a bug in qmail or the recursive server
the qmail host is using -- one of them is wrongly treating timeouts as
nxdomain rather than as transient failures.
However I agree this is a serious quality of hosting issue with my
registrar's nameservers. They should not be timing out or dropping
packets like they are. I was able to reproduce the issue. So for now
I'm just going to move dns hosting for libc.org to my own nameserver.
