Title:
  Fails to try next server when resolving domain name if primary server
  returns no recursion available

Status in wget package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: wget

  In a situation where DNS servers misbehave, wget fails to try the next
  server if the primary returns "recursion not available" on a
  particular domain name, even if the secondary DNS server is able to
  answer the query.

  See the output of nslookup and wget in such a situation:

  bruno@nuuk:~$ nslookup www.camino.uk.com
  ;; Got recursion not available from 217.13.128.17, trying next server
  Server:		83.218.143.36
  Address:	83.218.143.36#53

  Non-authoritative answer:
  www.camino.uk.com	canonical name = camino.uk.com.
  Name:	camino.uk.com
  Address: 67.222.99.135

  bruno@nuuk:~$ wget www.camino.uk.com
  --2010-07-08 14:36:57--  http://www.camino.uk.com/
  Resolving www.camino.uk.com... failed: Name or service not known.
  wget: unable to resolve host address `www.camino.uk.com'

  Expected behaviour: if nslookup is able to resolve the domain name, I
  would expect that wget and any other HTTP client be able to do the
  same rather than exit with an error.
