I'm not familiar with sudo's code but at the first glance it seems that all calls to gethostbyname() are protected by the FQDN flag. One possibility I can think of is that the config file is parsed _after_ the first hostname check but I do not have enough time to check that. If you have time you could rebuild sudo without the "--with-fqdn" option; if that eliminates the error message, then indeed the configuration file is parsed too late.
