Looks like someone is running a "transparent" DNS proxy and
is intercepting your queries. You see these sorts of results
in hotels which just re-direct all DNS queries to a local
recursive server.
First thing I would be looking at is your NAT box and making
sure it is not doing the interception.
For reference below is what the responses should look like.
Note the servers for redhat.com are allowing you to see
their cache contents so the final answer for that query
may vary.
