This works:

~~~
Resolv::DNS.open(nameserver: ['8.8.8.8'] ) { |dns| dns.getresources('wikileaks.org', Resolv::DNS::Resource::IN::A) }
~~~

This fails:

~~~
Resolv::DNS.open(nameserver: ['217.219.179.10'] ) { |dns| dns.getresources('wikileaks.org', Resolv::DNS::Resource::IN::A) }

I found out that 217.219.179.10 returns additional resources Resolv can not handle. You can test it with:

~~~
dig @8.8.8.8 wikileaks.org
dig @217.219.179.10 wikileaks.org
~~~

I have attached a pcap file with both queries and responses.
