Did your DNS respond that the host was unknown?  If we get an authoritative
answer that the host is unknown we may well not go further.  I think the
purpose of the failover is not to handle lying dns servers, but to handle
down/unavailable dns servers.

I will enter a bug about this, but if you have more info on the way your
dns server was broken it may help.

Thanks
