RFC 1034 If the data at the node is a CNAME, and QTYPE doesn't match CNAME, copy the CNAME RR into the answer section of the response, change QNAME to the canonical name in the CNAME RR, and go back to step 1. Note "QNAME" refers the the name *after* CNAME substituion when you are following the process as described in 4.3.2. Algorithm. There is no confict between 1034 and 2308. Only a failure to examine all uses of QNAME in 1034.
