Ok, I used dig to simplify things. I agree the problem in this case is
the a/aaaa query. The whole thing started out with FireFox not finding
the server as d6.....

I now conclude this has to continue with the Mozilla guys. I have
checked that the server can and will hand out the aaaa answer.

Thanks to all, there was one stupid mistake, also something else that I
now know where to ask about.

Thanks.
