Thanks to both of you for your replies, +trace did show me the name servers for 
the domain and which answered, I would still need to query the other name 
servers but that's OK.  I wasn't aware that the standard DNS reply would show 
all A records for a domain - that's good to know, I wish I had a DNS round 
robin configuration to test against (we don't use it internally).  Fortunately 
I don't have to worry about different IP addresses based on location and my 
"context" doesn't involve CDNs so I can avoid that issue.

in standard operation, DNS returns all A records associated with a domain
name.

However, current CDNs tend to send different IPs for different clients,
often just the one that is tropologically closest to the client.

Unfortunately, such CDNs don't provide all possible addresses so I guess you
are unlucky here.
