When looking for an IP address (for instance when checking the MX of a domain), Zonecheck asks for a record of type ANY when it should ask twice, for A and for AAAA.

If a name has records of several types, with different TTLs, there is no warranty that ANY will return all of them (a well-known DNS problem) so false-positives can occur.

Since there is no "any address" record type (ADDR has been suggested but never accepted), Zonecheck should two two queries, for the A type and for the AAAA type.
