Like Maku, I'm a bit perplexed.My question is, you see no records where?

# host -t SRV _http._tcp.pkg.FreeBSD.org
_http._tcp.pkg.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.pao.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 10 10 80 pkgmir.geo.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.tuk.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.nyi.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.sjb.freebsd.org.

I personally see records *there*.

The OP can do more or less the same to verify his name resolution is
in fact working.
Outside of that, if you're using something other than a "normal"
resolver OR have resolver settings that block certain queries that can
cause it too.
A good example of this is dnsmasq's 'filterwin2k' setting.
