You'd think, but it could be either a glibc issue or something in how the
NIS server responds.  I use NIS, but not for host info and I'll be curious
to see what happens when I upgrade to F-10 in the near future.

So the server is definitely serving hosts (ypcat hosts lists many local ips). Without the nis or with nis after dns in the hosts line everything works fine.

Here are a couple straces of "curl google.com":
With nis in hosts line (seg fault):
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~brejc8/temp/nis_curl1.trace
Without nis in hosts line:
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~brejc8/temp/nis_curl2.trace

It would be great if someone else tried this so I can work out if it is our servers or a general issue.

On the nis topic, I spent ages this afternoon trying to figure out why package-manager would not allow me to install anything. Eventually I found the cause was the nis groups overriding the file ones and polkituser group number was being used (sigh, Why oh why do admins keep using sub 500 group numbers?).
