Description

This is/was the root cause of #12208. NetResolv assumes that "localhost" actually exists, but in some startup instances it doesn't. I haven't been able to reproduce, but apparently it is pretty easily reproducible when running Haiku on a machine with WiFi or via Bridged networking in VirtualBox.

By the time the DHCP REPLY comes back a few (dozen) ms later, localhost is up, so this is probably a race condition.
