The gethostbyname4() lookup method is problematic since it fires out both
yann@1201
     8
the A and AAAA DNS queries in parallel and over the same socket. This
yann@1201
     9
should work in theory, but it turns out that many cheap DSL modems and
yann@1201
    10
similar devices have buggy DNS servers - if the AAAA query arrives too
yann@1201
    11
quickly after the A query, the server will generate only a single reply
yann@1201
    12
with the A query id but returning an error for the AAAA query; we get
yann@1201
    13
stuck waiting for the second reply.

For gethostbyname4() users affected, disabling IPv6 in the system might
yann@1201
    16
work around the issue, unfortunately it only helps with applications
yann@1201
    17
using AI_ADDRCONFIG (e.g. Firefox); some (notably e.g. Pidgin) neglect
yann@1201
    18
to do that.
yann@1201
    19
yann@1201

Real fix should be using separate ports for the A and AAAA queries.
