No. We try github.com.in when the hostname is warunjikar.in. Per above
note, it should have (if at all) only tried github.com.warunjikar.in.

But since github.com is not a non-fqdn, it should not have tried any
alternative at all. This is not written clearly, in FreeBSD or Linux
documents I cited. In either case, neither of the two would extract .in
from my hostname and try appending.
