Essentially, if there's an SRV record being published on the LAN for a
local web site, and the SRV record points to a hostname that doesn't
have a published A record to resolve it, you'll get this problem.

1. Epiphany goes "Hi there local network, any web sites out there?"
2. Avahi says "Yes! One on joe.local, and another on frank.local!"
3. Epiphany adds joe.local to the "Local Sites" bookmark folder, asks "What is 
joe.local's IP?"
4. Epiphany hangs if joe.local has no A record in MDNS.
5. Eventually, Epiphany realizes it's not getting an answer and continues.

The whole app blocks on MDNS queries for some reason.

Good luck.
