You can close this bug as it's my ISP fault. They are forcing their own DNSes which recolve anything unresolveable as that IP. If I change my NM connection and force other DNSes than theirs, then everything works fine.

This is unacceptable and a potential security risk! "xyzzy.xyzzy.xyzzy." is an invalidDNS name that needs to always fail when resolved.
