This is actually pretty encouraging, because it looks like you have a repeatable test case.
Your DSL router is acting as a proxy for DNS, or actually running a resolver (I'll bet it's a stub resolver) which has advantages and disadvantages. If you see the odd IP, and you immediately ping the matching name, it'd tell us if the router and/or windows has the wrong IP, or if it is somehow getting flipped around in LIBCURL. This isn't a BOINC bug, but there may be a way for BOINC to work around the LIBCURL flaw.
