Per http://ahbl.org/content/changes-ahbl, AHBL is going away (still used in spamassassin-3.3.1)

Meanwhile, AHBL is serving strange DNS responses, e.g.
(from wireshark)

  1   0.000000 142.90.100.186 -> 162.243.209.249 DNS 93 Standard query 0xc828  
A zuz.rhsbl.ahbl.org
  2   0.072481 162.243.209.249 -> 142.90.100.186 DNS 246 Standard query 
response 0xc828
    Authoritative nameservers
        rhsbl.ahbl.org: type NS, class IN, ns invalid.ahbl.org
        rhsbl.ahbl.org: type NS, class IN, ns unresponsive.ahbl.org
        rhsbl.ahbl.org: type NS, class IN, ns unresponsive2.ahbl.org
            Name Server: unresponsive2.ahbl.org
    Additional records
        invalid.ahbl.org: type A, class IN, addr 244.254.254.254
            Addr: 244.254.254.254 (244.254.254.254)
        unresponsive.ahbl.org: type A, class IN, addr 10.230.230.230
            Addr: 10.230.230.230 (10.230.230.230)
        unresponsive2.ahbl.org: type A, class IN, addr 192.168.230.230
            Addr: 192.168.230.230 (192.168.230.230)
        invalid.ahbl.org: type AAAA, class IN, addr fe80::
            Addr: fe80::

This last one, fe80::, is an IPv6 scope-link address that causes the BIND nameserver to log a weird error
named[31365]: socket.c:4373: unexpected error:
named[31365]: 22/Invalid argument
Per http://www.mail-archive.com/bind-users@lists.isc.org/msg05240.html
connect() fails as it is missing scoping information.
