"bad cache-hit" or "bad-cache hit"

[John Thurston]

Looking in my logs today, I found a confusing line:

     validating cran.rproject.org/SOA: bad cache hit (rproject.org/DS)

I was trying to figure out what was wrong with my cache, and how BIND 
might be able to determine that a cache hit is bad. To do that, it would 
need to retrieve the current value and compare it to the value in cache 
. . and by the time it has done that, why has it bothered to consult the 
cache?

But now I think I may have mis-parsed the line. Maybe it isn't:

     bad cache-hit (i.e. Something was wrong with the cached value)

but is instead:

     bad-cache hit (i.e. We found what we wanted in the cache of bad 
entries)

Can anyone confirm my hypothesis?
