Turns out that the MacDNS box correctly passes the query it can't resolve upstream to my ISP, and it's the LOOKUP ERROR reply from the ISP which then upsets MacDNS. Bizarre. I've never caught MacDNS choking on a packet before now (though I've known it do other naughty things. But I'm still surprised that Tiger is sending out on the network requests to resolve:

"1.0.0.127.dnsbugtest.1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa"

which looks very odd to me. Can't believe Apple intends a Tiger box to do this.

I'd do a packet capture on the network see which system is doing this. Google offers up nothing on this in a search, which if this were a widely reported issue, I think it would have.
