:and nothing further happens. So it seems to be a DNS problem.
:But I thought they all are using the same resolver library.

     As far as I can tell my DNS is working.  You could try ktracing
     the fetch to see where it's stalling, and tcpdump to trace the DNS
     queries.  Also check your resolv.conf and so on and so forth.

     Other common foulups including broken dns search paths specified
     in resolv.conf, network routing and/or port issues, etc.
