Benoit Grange when he was a member of NIC France has written
a small test program which can easily detect DNS servers
without proper UDP checksumming. With it we can complain
when a new server is installed without checksumming...
I believe we can't really banish all the sites without
checksumming today then we must follow the standard path
(educate them, point to them, ...).

PS: another stupid problem is too low TTLs.
