FYI: Though we don't expose _r() functions, our netdb functions
without _r are thread-safe. So, you don't need _r() functions to be
thread-safe.
Further, getaddrinfo(3) in lwres still has query order problem which
was solved in our getaddrinfo(3).
BTW, I'm now working on upgrading the base of our resolver to BIND8's.
