I've never checked this out for sure, but I have heard that they *may*.

The reason is that I wanted to set up djbdns to both nameserve for our network
and cache (extensive details at puzzling.org/help.html if anyone wants to know),
and the upshot is you can do this, but the cache will never return authoritative
answers for *anything* (apparently it's just a bit set or not in the relevant
packet), and apparently registrars have bugged people about this.
