I see this message consistently upon resume from suspend (sleep). It is usually followed by a reload of the config file, and, perhaps depending on the number of poke messages, perhaps not, other tasks which depend on DNS being up may have trouble until it is finished with the reload. In my case I have 'ddclient' configured with the canonical address of a site to report the IP address of the system, but it fails because the name resolution request fails. Here are the relevant messages from the log:
