An "any" query will return whatever happens to be in the cache at the
time.  If the address wasn't returned, it means that the A record in the
cache had timed out.

You can only expect "any" queries to return a complete set of records if
you're querying the authoritative server for the domain.  When you're
querying a caching server, you should specify the specific type you want.
