I've rewritten this part in head. The new code take care of the this and
use the ttl that we get with all rr's so that the cell cache information
that is fetched from DNS is refetch whenever the the rr expires.
Can you try it out from the cvs-tree ?

I though I had fixed this problem now several times by disabling the code
that causes this error. Please use -z to arlad then starting it, that
avoids the problem.
