Then why are we giving PermError for other syntax errors and
things like bad includes?
Well, for two reasons: First, it is a heck of a lot harder to
accidentally create a CNAME chain that is really long than it is to
accidentally type "ip:11.22.33.44" or "prt:foo.com".
adam.name SPF "v=spf1 a mx ptr ?all"
Adam: hey Bill, I've got this nifty SPF record that works for almost
any domain. Just make a CNAME to use it!
bill.name CNAME adam.name.
Bill: hey Carla! Check out this easy SPF record! Just CNAME it, and
it just works!
carla.name CNAME bill.name.
Carla: hey Don! You don't have to figure out that SPF stuff, just
CNAME my spf record!
don.name CNAME carla.name.

zorro.name CNAME yvette.name.
Zorro: hey Alpha! Skip those SPF docs, just CNAME my record.
alpha.name CNAME zorro.name.
