I don't get to see this. How do you get it like this? What name resolver is

I can only spot one place dispname gets assigned, and that is in the beginning
of lib/url.c:fix_hostname() ...

Right. Unless we can make dispname not be NULL at one single place first
instead. Do you think that would be possible?
