It means that tcpdump, by default, captures only the first 68 bytes or
so of packet data, so the routine to print the DNS records had to stop
when it ran out of data.
"Class 32769" means that the class of the resource record was 0x8001,
which is 0x0001 (inet), with the "cache flush" bit set:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns-02.txt
I've checked in a change to report that as "Cache flush" instead.
