They just mean that a DNS server claims to be able to give authoratative data for a domain and then gives out unauthoratative data. The server doing the query spits out these lame delegation warnings. If you download bind-4.9.3BETA26.tar.gz from ftp.vix.com, there is a script in there which will allow you to go through your /var/log/messages and send warning messages to the admins of the domains concerned. You ought to see the /var/log/messages on who.cdrom.com (the nameserver that serves all of cdrom.com and also freebsd.org - the lists on freebsd.org hit the DNS hard and often point out DNS bugs, like lame delegations)... the number of lame delegations it finds in a day is astounding.
