 * trust SYS_NMLN if it is at least 255 + 1 bytes to comply with DNS
 * host name limits.
 *
 * Note:  SYS_NMLN is a restriction on "uname" not on gethostbyname!
 *
 * For example HP-UX 10.20 has SYS_NMLN == 9,  while gethostbyname()
 * can return a fully qualified name from DNS of up to 255 bytes.

 * Fix suggested by Viktor Dukhovni (viktor@esm.com)
