Today i was noticed about a problem with "my default" dnsmasq config,
which could lead to delayed responses.

in this part replace:
#interface=lo
with
interface=lo

and:
listen-address=127.0.0.1
with
#listen-address=127.0.0.1

This will solve the same approach, but the first config was somewhat
improper for the default /etc/hosts since dapper.
