Because if you try to lookup invalid.domain.com using the system
library, you'll block the entire SlimServer for many seconds.  What we
do now is:

localhost => 127.0.0.1
single-word domain => use system library for lookup, it's probably in a
hosts file or LAN DNS server, so lookup should be fast.
normal domain -> async lookup using first working nameserver
(discovered at SlimServer startup time).
