I see ... servicing LAN with DNS server serving .local domain causes
problem with mDNS set-up.

Anyway, it was interesting to find out that popular .local usage and
leaky DNS quesry for it to the Internet was so much annoiance these
days.

It seems "`local`", "`lan`", "`home`", "`invalid`", "`localdomain`", "`none`",
and "`private`" seems to be popular bogus one TLS to use.
