Hi Jonathan,
The problem you submitted is due to mozilla's gethostbyname() own(bad)
implementation. FreeBSD's resolver can deal with underscores in
hostnames without any problem at all. I think you should submit that
problem to mozilla's bug tracking system(yes I succeded resolving that
hostname in FreeBSD 4.8 and 5.1).
