Version is reported as

"PowerDNS Recursor 3.1.4 $Id: pdns_recursor.cc 917 2006-11-07 12:23:51Z ahu $"

In the meantime our customer has fixed the NS rrsets of
zone bsz-bw.de, so the problem can no longer be reproduced.
The different default TTLs of the two masters have not
been corrected. Peeking at the cache dump, I now see

bsz-bw.de. 5414 IN NS dns1.belwue.de.
bsz-bw.de. 206 IN NS dns1.belwue.de.
bsz-bw.de. 5414 IN NS dns3.belwue.de.
bsz-bw.de. 206 IN NS dns3.belwue.de.
bsz-bw.de. 5414 IN NS uranos.rz.uni-konstanz.de.
bsz-bw.de. 206 IN NS uranos.rz.uni-konstanz.de.


Basically, the screwed setup was:

Master A announces:

$TTL 86400
example.com   NS B
example.com   NS X
example.com   NS Y

Master B announces:

$TTL 43200
example.com   NS A
example.com   NS X
example.com   NS Y

Slave X uses Master A
Slave Y uses Master B
