Actually, if Asterisk kept the hostname of the DUNDi peer and tried to
resolve it sometimes (when?)it could be really useful. I also have some
issues with DUNDi (13532) and now I start thinking that all my problems
were caused by a scenario like:

1. Temporary loss of DNS service (because loss of connectivity between
remote and central offices)
2. Restart of Asterisk (because of crash)
3. When Asterisk starts and can not resolve DUNDi peer IP, DUNDi does not
work and it will not start working ever.

Not sure how keeping the hostname and resolving it is consistent with
other pieces of the system (sip/iax hostnames etc).
