See http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/known-issues.html#bugreport for

Adding a "--no-ares" option to the bbtest-net command in
hobbitlaunch.cfg might help; we know there is a bug in the C-ARES
library used for DNS lookups, but it is apparently something which only 
triggers occasionally (or in specific setups).
