bitrange for nsdispatch(3) return values.
* Tweak documentation comments in nsswitch.h
* Ensure the result from the back-end method is masked with
NS_STATUSMASK before nsdispatch(3) returns it.
but it is specified by IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition (POSIX) and
the X/Open standards (Issue 6 and XNS 5.2).
* revert change removing gethostent() from gethostbyname(3) man page
* delete kruft from gethnamaddr.c leaving only gethostent() as a
wrapper around _gethtent().
* revert recent changes to <netdb.h>
+ restore gethostent() prototype
+ restore freehostent() prototype; handle similar to non-shipped
getipnodby*() prototypes
+ use correct XOPEN_SOURCE version (520 not 500) for freeaddrinfo()
prototype; interface specified by XNS5.2 not XNS5

Adapted from FreeBSD. Maintains full backward API / ABI compatbility
with built-in-only nsdispatch().
While here, also make nsdispatch() itself thread-safe.
In XNS5, and subsequently in POSIX-2001 it was changed to socklen_t.
To accomodate for this while preserving binary compatibility with the
old interface, prepend or append 32 bits of padding, depending on
the (LP64 data model) architecture's endianness. Fixes PR
standards/21411 from Ben Harris.
This should be deleted the next time the libc major number is
incremented.
Also, update getnetbyaddr(3)'s `net' argument accordingly.
.rhosts file. This allows it to have a mode of 600
and still function correctly even when used on an NFS
client with uid 0 mapped to another (anonymous) UID.
Patch from Brian Ginsbach <ginsbach@cray.com>,
and fixes [bin/14880] from Darren Reed <darrenr@>.
Based on email conversation with Brian Ginsbach.
Add '%option never-interactive' to nslexer.l, to prevent isatty() from
being called unnecessarily.
Per discussion on current-users@ between Christian Biere and Greg Woods.
