Thanks to Hans Schaechl, Mike Allmen, and Bernt Christandl for very timely
answers.
This turns out to be a minor bug (BugId 4194687) that is annoying, but does
not seem to effect the operation of the system. It can be gotten around by
creating the file /etc/defaultdomain, with a single line that is your domain
name. Appears to work just fine.
Original question follows.
