Current getaddrinfo() implemetation has a problem of too much resolving
waiting time on INET6 enabled systems.
-4 and -6 options can limit name resolving address family and is a possible
workaround for the problem.

the new -i option were missing.
Fixed style bugs in previous commit:
(1) initialisation of a local variable in its declaration.
(2) inconsistency of (1) with style of nearby code.
(3) disorder of declaration for (1).
(4) a line longer than 80 characters.
(5) bitrot in the printf() -> err() cleanups to help bloat the line in (4).
local "login" name for rcmd(3). This is particularly useful for things
like portslave and other packages with terminal server functionality
where a login can either run ppp locally or get shunted off to another
box via rlogin depending on radius authentication etc. Quite often the
local box doesn't even have accounts, so a flag such as this is needed.
Obviously this is restricted to callers with uid == 0.
announced a K4 weakness with their rsh/rlogins. We were not put in any
danger by this, as we were not using KTH rlogin/rsh, but the patches
in themselves, had some good points. This lot means we can run our
rlogin without it being SUID root. Win win win. There are other KTH
cleanups as well.
for gcc >= 2.5 and no-ops for gcc >= 2.6. Converted to use __dead2
or __pure2 where it wasn't already done, except in math.h where use
of __pure was mostly wrong.
Kerberos obtains a network address for the local host from the routing
tables and uses it consistently for all Kerberos transactions. This ensures
that packets only leave the *authenticated* interface. Clients who open
and use their own sockets for encrypted or authenticated correspondance
to kerberos services should bind their sockets to the same address as that
used by kerberos. krb_get_local_addr() and krb_bind_local_addr() allow
clients to obtain the local address or bind a socket to the local address
used by Kerberos respectively.

I do some digging out on this subject and found that remote
rlogind may reduce big speeds to 38400 by itself and (as more often
rlogind variant) speed setting ioctl fails, so speed left on 9600.
In all cases it doesn't do any real harm.
