That fixed it.  After finding that it was a DNS issue (surprise to me), I
checked with our network admins to find out that the our primary nameserver
is offline.  I had no idea that could cause this sort of issue.  After
removing that server from resolv.conf and putting dns back in nsswitch.conf,
things are working normally.

Then change...

hosts:   files dns

to

hosts:   files

and try again...

Why be difficult when, with a bit of effort, you could be impossible?
