Return NOERROR for one type of RR, but NXDOMAIN for another?  Is
that valid?!  Hit me with a clue-by-four if appropriate, but I
thought NOERROR/NXDOMAIN was returned per-host, regardless of
RRTYPE requested.  Giving NXDOMAIN for MX yet returning NOERROR
for A RRs doesn't sound kosher.

Time for me to dig through a few RFCs.
