Our code should handle that correctly, and testing it seems fine.  It will
only do an A query if it's looking at an ip4 address.

I think the problem is dns errors, there are several things in our logs
which imply that we were unable to get a txt record in the last couple
days, though not today.  Our caches all look to have the correct data now,
so I don't know what was going on then.
