Also, they are the same as the same files on the other servers, and those servers don't have this problem. I've tried this from several different servers.

I then restarted network just to make sure the hosts file was reread. No change. There is still a 30 second delay.
I'm about out of ideas. Do you have access to the server? If so you can run increase the LogLevel temporarily to DEBUG3 (lots of stuff dumped to logs so don't leave it that way). Or you can shut down the regular sshd and start one of Debug mode (-D). From your domain name I suspect the above might be out of the question :-)
