During his PROTO review, Andrew observed that the CD bit appendix 
mentions validating stub resolvers and, indeed, it seems to me that 
section 5.9 would apply to validating stub resolvers also.  At least 
for the moment, I've removed the sentence saying the section doesn't 
apply to stub resolvers.  If there's a better way to fix this, please 
speak up.
