I wish to fix following things which break ABI backward compatibility
when libc version bump:
- gethostbyaddr(3) prototype to conform to POSIX.
- Fix wrong usage of EAI_MEMORY in getnameinfo(). It needs to
return EAI_OVERFLOW.
- Update res_update() and friends to BIND9's one.
- Nuke some compatibility crufts for 6.X and earlier.
Sincerely,
