Conflicting glue records?

Each registrars push the information that they have. So if you have
apples.com with an NS record of ns1.dns.com==137.161.0.1 and
oranges.com with a NS record of ns1.dns.com=137.161.0.2, when people
query for apples, they will get the .1 address and when they query for
oranges.com they will get the .2 address. Inversely if apples.com has
an ns record of ns1.apples.com and oranges.com has an NS record of
ns1.oranges.com but they both resolve to the same IP address, the
requester will see the corresponding name.
