Thanks, I'll take a look.

The issue was that the CNAME target was "TELEMANN.coda.cs.cmu.edu" (ie. in capitals). Records were not being normalized before going into the cache, and so the record wasn't found when searching for CNAME candidates. Thanks for reporting, the fix is in http://prosody.im/changeset/481c6724818f and will be released in 0.7 shortly.
