I too have been affected by this bug. No issues with .local multicasting
for me either. Running 10.4.1, intel E3300, 2gb ram, g43 chipset, sata
hdd's, realtek onbord eth.
mich...@server:~$ host -t SOA local
Host local not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
after reboot:
mich...@server:~$ ps -A |grep avahi

Network discovery from my mac does not work up to this point. Then i
restart the avahi-daemon and all is good with the world.
mich...@server:~$ sudo service avahi-daemon restart
[sudo] password for michael:

at this point my server appears in OS X's finder and my shares are
accessible.
Here is the output from cat /var/log/syslog | grep avahi for the reboot
and then the restart of the service:
