Happens both at boot and after boot if restarting avahi-daemon service,
and there is a 10-15" wait before the service start script prints a [FAILED]
red tag; avahi-daemon process does start up anyways.

-git7 is the latest "good" kernel
-git8, -git9, -git11, -git13 have been reproducing the issue


thanks, ciao,
