There's a small error in gethostbyname.3.  The third argument is the socket
family (AF_INET) which need sys/socket.h included (as well as sys/types.h
for sys/socket.h).

I was going to fix and commit this myself, but I'm not sure where those
headers should be listed since they are only needed for gethostbyaddr().  
Typically I see them overtop of the function they are needed for, but
those functions are usually listed last and moving gethostbyaddr() to the 
bottom really didn't fit.

Can someone with a little more doc clue fix this up?
