Hi Nicholas,

To answer both your messages in one go, if you run with 'presigned zones',
PowerDNS will use the RRSIG from your database. So it will find the right
RRSIG that goes with your A record.

Secondly, if you use a pre-signed zone, you can also mess up your RRSIG by
hand to generate a 'broken' zone.
