207 * On October 23rd 2003, Dan C dug up more details on the mysteries of
208 * gethostbyname_r() in glibc:
210 * In glibc 2.2.5 the interface is different (this has also been
211 * discovered in glibc 2.1.1-6 as shipped by Redhat 6). What I can't
212 * explain, is that tests performed on glibc 2.2.4-34 and 2.2.4-32
213 * (shipped/upgraded by Redhat 7.2) don't show this behavior!
215 * In this "buggy" version, the return code is -1 on error and 'errno'
216 * is set to the ERANGE or EAGAIN code. Note that 'errno' is not a
217 * thread-safe variable.

223 /* AIX, Digital Unix/Tru64, HPUX 10, more? */
225 /* For AIX 4.3 or later, we don't use gethostbyname_r() at all, because of
226 * the plain fact that it does not return unique full buffers on each
227 * call, but instead several of the pointers in the hostent structs will
228 * point to the same actual data! This have the unfortunate down-side that
229 * our caching system breaks down horribly. Luckily for us though, AIX 4.3
230 * and more recent versions have a "completely thread-safe"[*] libc where
231 * all the data is stored in thread-specific memory areas making calls to
232 * the plain old gethostbyname() work fine even for multi-threaded
235 * This AIX 4.3 or later detection is all made in the configure script.
