As far as I can tell, Robin is correct. The current ILNP specification
does not deal with the case of a DNS name that points to multiple
different machines.
It seems pretty clear that some form of indirection will be needed so
that a DNS name can point to a list of names, each of which has I and L
(and maybe LP) records. The good thing is that there are a number of
mechanisms available in DNS to do this, and the logic doesn't break
anything.
Yours,
Joel

Short version: As far as I know, the text Xiaohu points to is
not relevant to the question of whether a single
ILNP FQDN can lead to multiple unique hosts, each
of which has a single Identifier and potentially
multiple Locators.
