Two of Google’s IPs do resolve from some sources, but not from others:

74.125.82.46 and 74.125.82.54 resolve to mail-wm0-f46.google.com 
<http://mail-wm0-f46.google.com/> and mail-wm0-f54.google.com 
<http://mail-wm0-f54.google.com/>, but those two names only resolve back to the 
IPs from some places. The status is NXDOMAIN, not some REFUSED/SERVFAIL.

From server 1:

matthias@trillian:~$ dig -t any mail-wg0-f46.google.com

Anybody else noticing inconsistencies? 

Note: Even though I noticed this on dnswl.org <http://dnswl.org/> servers, the 
behaviour seems to be erratic also on completely non-dnswl.org 
<http://non-dnswl.org/>-related machines.
