[Bug 668926] [NEW] can't resolve domain names starting with a dash (minus sign)

There are websites that people on Windows and OSX seem to be able to
visit, but I can't, failing with "can't find server" or similar messages
for failed name resolution, because the domain name starts with a dash.
Test case: http://-inevitablelament.tumblr.com/
