Additionally, it seems that one or more of the orbs nameservers are
filled with * zones, meaning that *anything* will be reported as
blocked:

122.142.162.193.relays.orbs.org has address 127.0.0.2
122.142.162.193.DEFECT.relays.orbs.org has address 127.0.0.2
www.orbs.org has address 127.0.0.2

only one thing to do. do not use orbs, but one of the other RBL's.
