If it can cause operational problems, then the present text should be
reworded.  I'll reuse text provided by Russ:

   DNS SRV RRs, like all DNS RRs, have a time-to-live (TTL), after which
   the SRV record information is no longer valid [RFC1034].  DNS RRs SHOULD
   be discarded after their TTL, and the DNS query repeated.  This applies
   to DNS SRV RRs for AFS as to any other DNS RR.  Any information derived
   from the DNS SRV RRs, such as preference ranks, MUST be discarded when
   the DNS SRV RR is expired.

I moved the RFC 1034 reference to the first sentence in that paragraph.  I
removed the "As specified in" to avoid any inference that the "should" in
RFC 1034 has been elevated to a "SHOULD".

This looks great.  Thank you!  Adopted for the next version of the I-D.
