WML and not unnecessary (?) DNS lookups.

When I execute 'wmk -a', something connected with WML does a lot of
queries to DNS about host from which I'm logged into the server.

$ env | grep REMOTEHOST
REMOTEHOST=REMOTEHOST

REMOTEHOST has nothing to do with that host (where I use
WML) excluding the fact that I'm logged in from this host.


I couldn't find out what's guilty -- perl or WML itself. Does it make
any sense to do so many DNS lookups? Can I somehow disable them?
