Subject:   What changed with the resolver such that it won't use /etc/hosts anymore?

All of my boxes that are on a private network can longer resolve their IP
address to a name.  In the past this /etc/nsswitch.conf would have the
resolver first look in /etc/hosts which would resolve the IP address to a
name.

     $ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf 
     hosts: files dns 

So what broke this?
