This bug was fixed in the package eglibc - 2.10.1-0ubuntu16

---------------
eglibc (2.10.1-0ubuntu16) karmic-proposed; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/patches/series: Apply any/local-ipv6-lookup.diff again to fix
    painfully long timeouts on DNS resolution, if routers do not send an
    answer to AAAA (IPv6) DNS queries. With this patch those DNS requests are
    not sent in the first place if there are no routable IPV6 interfaces.
    (LP: #417757) This reopens LP #239701, #374674, so a full solution would
    need to fix the patch properly.

  [ Matthias Klose ]
  * patches/any/cvs-malloc-check.diff: new patch from upstream to fix bugs
    with MALLOC_CHECK. Closes: #557158. LP: #425723.
