Basically the machine died in a big way (the cooling fan failed, and
everything cooked).  We went without a replacement primary DNS
long enough for the secondaries to expire the data :-(.  There is now
another machine masquerading as our primary DNS and mailhost, but it
has taken much longer than I'd hoped to get a replacement machine
going, and I still don't know when it will be done.
