Oh, I understand; it's just that (and maybe this is an issue with my
installed set of libs) that it's trying to talk to (and I believe,
spinning while doing so) a non-existant resolver.

I have a caching DNS on 127.0.0.1 ; I'd love to plug that in all the
time, but some of the places I connect do (WiFi HotSpots, especially)
don't pass general domain queries, expecting you to use their DNS
servers (as a part of their access control, I'd imagine).
