Comment (by Dhalgren):

 Is academic, but it looks like GoDaddy is blocking all traffic to their
 AS26496 network from my relay.  Tested direct connecting to the raw IP of
 some GoDaddy hosted web-sites and also see nothing but timeouts.  I was
 considering trying to configure named to pull NS domaincontrol.com domains
 from Google DNS, but clearly there's no point.
