There was one little additional problem which creates this behavior. Every lookup is slow in the F11 GA release's glibc. I've fixed that since. Now, as it should be, only the fist lookup in a process is slow.

And yes, that will be the final solution. It is not acceptable that people with broken setups prevent progress for all the rest. You can set the appropriate option in resolv.conf and always get fast lookups in your broken environment but the default will be as it is now.
