Stale() is the function that determines whether an RR is in a zone that has
expired.  It contains a case statement that switches on the zone type, and
it panics with that error message if none of the cases match.  However, I
noticed that it doesn't have a case for the new "type forward" zone, so
maybe this is causing the problem.
