If you do not want to see these in your logs (not many people would, but
Paul likes to annoy us :), upgrade to bind 8.x and add this to your
/etc/named.conf file:

logging {

category lame-servers { null; };
category response-checks { null; };

channel syslog_errors

syslog user;
severity error;
};
};

This will quiet a few errors including lame server responses. Really,
someone should just fix the DNS for that host so it isn't delegated lame.
