OK in that case something is really taking your system for a ride. I
would check to see if that  71.28.79.87 is your 'public' ip address
with

curl -4 icanhazip.com

if it is then something from named or some other utility is
translating localhost for you.  host -v localhost might give you more
information on what is giving lookups crazy answers

[smooge@linode01 ~]$ host -v localhost
Trying "localhost.members.linode.com"
Trying "localhost.smoogespace.com"
Trying "localhost"
