Comment(by koolfy):

 It has been suggested on IRC that this might simply be the result of wrong
 DNS queries made through the Tor Network, nothing else.

 Those messages could be reproduced by issuing DNS queries for labels
 greater than 63 characters.

 Maybe this raises the question on whether checks should be made on the DNS
 queries that are given to Tor ?
 Would there be any use or any point in filtering incorrect queries before
 they are issued ?

 If not, I think this ticket should be closed as invalid.
