	All records in a RRset should have the same TTL.  Servers enforce
	this either by minimizing all the TTL's in the RRset on load/
	reception and/or by discarding the RRset when any of the RRs in the
	RRset expire.  Only very old servers expire RRs individually.

	Different RRsets can have different TTLs.
