I would think that could potentially open you up to something bad.

Say you have payroll.mydomain.local and I join my linux box 'named
'payroll'.

Now someone goes to http://payroll.mydomain.local/ and it hits my box.

Switching MDNS to the end (files dns mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return])
should fix the issue in cases where DNS wasn't down for some reason.
