Current CVS (checkout two minutes ago at 11.35pm GMT) is pretty much
broken again regarding the internal DNS. Pages don't open when you hit a
CNAME and I get frequent errors like

2008/01/12 00:33:12| ipcacheParse: No Address records in response to
'www.hp.com'
2008/01/12 00:33:37| ipcacheParse: No Address records in response to
'welcome.hp-ww.com'
2008/01/12 00:36:15| ipcacheParse: No Address records in response to
'www.google-analytics.com'

in the cache.log. It looks like DNS times out a couple of times.
Debugging section 14 does not give more results. The query

00:41:59.075658 IP 83.170.1.240.36282 > 83.170.1.240.53: 37174+ AAAA?
www.hp.com. (28)
00:41:59.075913 IP 83.170.1.240.53 > 83.170.1.240.36282: 37174 1/1/0
CNAME www.hpgtm.nsatc.net. (116)

is repeated several times. This only seems to happen when you hit a
CNAME on an IPv4-only host, CNAME to dual-stacked or IPv4-only with an
address directly associated to the hostname works.
