Response Policy Zone returns servfail for time.in Trigger

Since one of the corner cases where RPZ is used is for mitigation of 
failures of legitimate resources, I have a question...

Does this mean that in the default configuration an e.g. A record in an 
RPZ overriding brokenness in the global DNS with a QNAME override might 
fail due to the same brokenness? As far as I know I've never experienced 
that.

Going forward, what is anticipated to be the proper configuration for that 
scenario?

Thanks...
