Could you resolve this into a specific line of the source code please?

I do not think this is a correct approach. We should make sure that the
proper fallback node is used instead. This means that the zone list is
initialized properly. IIRC this has been a problem in the past and it
has been fixed. The initialization code is quite subtle though so it is
possible that this got broken again.
