 "whois vinc17.net" or "whois nerim.net" is very slow (about one minute)
 and can even times out. There's no such problem from the same network
 under Debian.

 According to the source, whois.crsnic.net is used for .net domains. So, to
 be sure, I've checked with
 {{{
 whois -h whois.crsnic.net nerim.net
 }}}
 but while it still works under Debian, it still times out under Mac OS X.

 Note: my machine is a Mac OS X 10.4.11 / PowerPC.
