> calls to importDirectory were hanging.  After some debugging, it was determined that the imports were stuck waiting on DNS lookups.
> {{InetAddress#getByName}} calls {{gethostbyname_r}}
> Further, it was determined that the call only hangs if /etc/hosts.conf contains "reorder on".
> A bug was found in this section of the glibc resolver, and a bug report will be made to them.
> Workaround: turn off address reordering.
> Many thanks to [~bfloss] for finding this bug.
