Not bailing out on a FORMERR from a SRV query. Note that my problem
isn't that my resolver can't handle SRV, but that it gives the wrong
answer instead of a NXDOMAIN. This marks the keyserver as dead even
with successful A and AAAA replies.
$ gpg --refresh-keys
gpg: refreshing […] keys from hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
gpg: keyserver refresh failed: No keyserver available
