Comment (by ambroff):

Also, welcome to Haiku! What brings you to these parts? :)

 Thanks! I was a user of BeOS R5, and lately I've been looking for fun
 projects to work on during the occasional lazy Saturday.

 You're right pulkomandy and markh, #12388 has nothing to do with this. I
 should have actually tested my theory that it was related before making
 that claim. Sorry for the goose chase. I just saw that the timing was
 close, and the patch for that ticket had a hunk that added an additional
 call to BNetworkAddressResolver::GetNextAddress(), which made me jump to
 conclusions.

 I verified that

 1. Trunk has this issue
 2. 12388 has nothing to do with it. Reverting doesn't solve the problem.
 3. Adding the B_NO_ADDRESS_RESOLUTION flag as sugested by pulkomandy does
 indeed solve the problem.

 I'm attaching a patch that adds that flag.
