I also cannot retrieve glue records, but have them cached on my server:

Fails (+trace implies +dnssec however):

dig +short +trace ed.gov ns

Works:

~$ dig @ns.olp.net ed.gov ns

<cut>

The servers are responding:

~$ dig @165.224.21.6 www.ed.gov

www.ed.gov.             3600    IN      CNAME   www.ed.gov.adtihosting.com.

edtihosting.com is not retrievable in whois either, but its dns is cached
as well. Their webpage (www.adtihosting.com) advertises itself as
"Localweb.com", and their website lists this contact information:
