Hi, It seems that Opera on -current ignores /etc/hosts on my system: the hostname I type in the address bar is resolved using the nameserver while there is an entry for it in /etc/hosts. Using konqueror, name resolution is as expected, it resolves to the local address specified in /etc/hosts. On -stable, Opera correctly resolves the hostname using /etc/hosts. Assuming it has something to do with the compat4x libs, I grabbed a tcsh binary from a -stable system and used that to ping the host on the local network (see below). Looks fine, it resolves to the local address.
