Don't think so, i have hosts before bind in host.conf (and localhost is in there), and even if it still would try to reach the nameserver it should immediately have gotten a ENETDOWN back, as the dialup link to it was ifconfig'ed down (no flat rates in good ol' germany... :( ) But anyway, as it seems to be fixed in the newer X versions...
