I don't see anything there out of the ordinary.  avahi starts up when
your machine no longer has a 'real' IP, then removes itself when a
real IP is set up again.

I think you're barking up the wrong tree.

Tell us more about the symptoms.  It's kinda interesting that it's
.49, then .51 10 seconds later.
