I think there is also a problem with freebsd-update.

[root at miraculix ~]# freebsd-update upgrade -r 10.2-RELEASE
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found.
Fetching metadata signature for 10.1-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
^C
[root at miraculix ~]# host -t srv _http._tcp.update.FreeBSD.org
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 40 80 update6.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 35 80 update4.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 30 80 update2.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 5 80 update3.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 50 80 update5.freebsd.org.

freebsd-update reporting no mirrors found but the host command returns mirrors.

The problem seams to be the
sed -nE "s/${MLIST} (has SRV record|server selection) //p"

MLIST is _http._tcp.update.FreeBSD.org but sed doesn't match any of the lines from the host command.

Replaceing the servername with the lowercase variant matches every line.

There is not DNS Problem but a case sensitivity problem in freebsd-update
