Update: I ran into an interesting "glitch" in using dnsmasq. I've been running dnsmasq on one of my Pis as the solution to another problem now since about Jun 10th.
Anyway, I won't go into all the details about how to reproduce and test this (details are available upon request), but the tl;dr is: If you are running dnsmasq on machine A and machine B is using machine A as its DNS server, then you won't be able to access machine A from machine B in the normal ways (ping, ssh, etc). Attempts to connect to machine A from machine B get routed back to machine B (i.e., localhost).
There are fixes (hacks) to fix this, of course, ...
