Then just make your local nameserver authoritative for the domain in question.  
You can always firewall off port 53, if the nameserver faces outward and 
you're scared of breaking the Internet for other people  :)

The most likely explanation is, the developers either have more reliable 
Internet connections  (which maybe they need for SIP or IAX trunks)  or have 
configured their nameservers properly.

Remember, even a short "how I fixed it for myself" post counts as doing 
something useful for the community.
