It was the RSS reader, disguised as a "Live Bookmark" under the Bookmarks
Toolbar.  I am quite sure I haven't added it myself :-), so it must have
been there in the initial installation.  I have no idea why ICMP pings
or DNS queries would be prerequisite for RSS, but there it is: the logs
stopped after I deleted the bookmark.

It would probably be a good idea to ask via debconf if that bookmark
should be kept, when iceweasel is initially installed.  If that is done,
I'm OK with closing this bug :-)
