Hmm, that doesn't seem right.  I have a .localdomain on all my hostnames
and Avahi and mDNS work just fine with the special .local domain.

  [jbastian@tarantula ~]$ hostname
  tarantula.localdomain

  [jbastian@tarantula ~]$ ip addr show em1 | grep inet | awk '{print $2}'
  192.168.1.75/24
  fe80::f2de:f1ff:fe15:6496/64

From another system:

  [jbastian@gecko ~]$ avahi-resolve-host-name tarantula.local
  tarantula.local       fe80::f2de:f1ff:fe15:6496

  [jbastian@gecko ~]$ ping -n tarantula.local
  PING tarantula.local (192.168.1.75) 56(84) bytes of data.
  64 bytes from 192.168.1.75: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.281 ms
  ...

Maybe you have iptables blocking mDNS traffic (tcp port 5353)?
