/etc/hosts change caused issue
after examing the hosts file for ^M, or other hidden characters, none were found, but I did find two of the added lines had a typo, were someone had a comma separator instead of periods.
anyone run across this behaviour before?

Re: /etc/hosts change caused issue
It's really hard to figure out from here, I think any of these may have occured.
1. You missed one or more hosts from original host file.
2. Missed one/more aliases from original file.
3. Missed default entries like loop back address/ actual host's address.
4. The file name got changed or permission changed.
5. Or file was not in a readable format.
You can try again adding the entries carefully, and see what happens.
Best of luck

Re: /etc/hosts change caused issue
Try use nslookup for test new entries.
cat /etc/hosts | awk '{print $1}' | while read IP
do
echo "*** $IP ****" >>/tmp/logfile
nslookup $IP >>/tmp/logfile
done
Try discover any problems in log file.
