DNS Problems for *.macports.org, also macosforge.org

Hi,

there seems to be a problem with the DNS setup for macports.org,
and I can reproduce the problem for at least macosforge.org as
well.

When I try resolving a domain below macports.org, I receive a
SERVFAIL DNS answer, indicating that a server failed to answer
correctly. This isn't limited to my provider's DNS, but also
happens when specifically asking Google's DNS. Check the output
of

$> dig macosforge.org @8.8.8.8
$> dig macosforge.org @208.67.222.222

This has been happening since at least an hour, since that's
when I got the first report that my port tree sync check cronjob
failed.

Can you look into it and/or escalate? This is going to become a
problem quickly.
