} Actually I can *ONLY* reproduce it with IPv6 entries, v4 ones work fine.

        Hello.  If you turn off dns resolution for the hosts database in
nsswitch.conf, can you reproduce it for both ipv4 and ipv6 entries?  I see
it for both on NetBSD-5.2, as I outlined in the bug report, and it looks
like the same problem exists in netbsd-6 and -current.
