I guess it depends on how the DNS server deals with the wildcard domain. I can tell you that djbdns doesn't care about the part covered by the wildcard, it will happily resolve _!test.domain (although it is an invalid name according to the RFC).



Read a little further, and it looks like A and MX records are required to be compliant, but other records are not, which apparently includes CNAMEs.
