I thought of ndots but I figured surely default wouldn't change.. silly
me! This was indeed the culprit.
If the change is in libc, it appears to be between 2.19-4 and 2.19-7.
http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/g/glibc/glibc_2.19-11_changelog
.. doesn't seem to indicate any resolver / DNS changes between those
versions, though. I'll continue to research.
