It's a bug that it's not caught, but it also means your network is not configured properly. It's important that you have a proper network setup if you intend to use ROS with remote machines.
In this case, RoboIcaro is not a valid hostname, which is why roslaunch is raising an exception.
Please read: http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/NetworkSetup
for a guide on how to test your network config.
