Only outside the sandbox; inside the sandbox, it gives me "unknown
host", but if I change "%eth0" to "%eth0-11278", I can ping it, and I
can use it for DNS lookups.

No, and I don't think I ever have on this system.


So now that we have narrowed down the cause of the lookup failures, how
do I fix this?  And why on Earth does this happen only after the system
has been up for a few minutes, and not all the time?  rdnssd has been on
my system for a long time, but it's possible that I have unwittingly
changed some system configuration that affecting /etc/resolv.conf
