Well, my system is a fresh install were I just preserved my home directory and the 1.2.3.4 foo doesn't works.

The nsswitch.conf does have the 'files' on the hosts: entry. So, I must assume that either:

1) My system install was broken someway OR
2) There is some config file on user's home which can affect the DNS resolving OR
2) indeed /etc/hosts is being IGNORED, on a fresh install.

Well, I don't have time to dig into this, but I will gladly give any required information you request.
