tub@taylan:~$ nslookup localhost
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53

Name:   localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

tub@taylan:~$

The local DNS server is dnsmasq.

tub@taylan:~$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1       localhost
127.0.1.1       taylan.uni.cx   taylan

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
tub@taylan:~$

This is on Debian and I don't remember manually mucking with the file.

Were you not able to reproduce the bug?
