close 565174 thank you Clint,
it's not possible to CNAME zone at it's apex according to current spec, ie. it's not a bug, but a feature of DNS. For more info, you can see RFC1034/1035. You have to put CNAME into the parent zone (which may not be possible if you don't control the parent zone, ie. usually TLD).
