Comment(by rransom):

 boboper points out that `resolve_my_address` tries to resolve the system's
 hostname using `tor_lookup_hostname`, which uses the system's
 `gethostbyname` function, and in this case, the request was sent to the
 DNS server, not processed locally.

 What operating system are you using?
