in KAME implementation, even when no policy is installed
into kernel, getaddrinfo(3) sorts addresses. Since it
causes POLA violation, I modified to don't sort addresses

(aka RFC2292bis). Though I believe this commit doesn't break
backward compatibility againt existing binaries, it breaks
backward compatibility of API.
Now, the applications which use Advanced Sockets API such as
telnet, ping6, mld6query and traceroute6 use RFC3542 API.

fixes a strange behaviour where inet_net_pton would always return 4 (bits)
for multicast addresses no matter how many octets were specified.

at configuration time (i.e. when nsdispatch is called and nsswitch.conf
is read or re-read).
= Make the nsdispatch(3) core thread-safe.
= New status code for nsdispatch(3) `NS_RETURN', currently used to

= Implement some shims to assist in porting NSS modules written for
the GNU C Library nsswitch interface.

- correct bad practice in the code - it uses two changing variables
to manage buffer (buf and buflen). we eliminate buflen and use
fixed point (ep) as the ending pointer.

Our res_*() is not thread-safe. So, we share lock between
getaddrinfo() and getipnodeby*(). Still, we cannot use
getaddrinfo() and getipnodeby*() in conjunction with other
functions which call res_*().
