heap buffer overflow. This was discovered by a Google fuzzer test.
This can lead to remote denial of service. User interaction and
execution privileges are not a prerequisite for exploitation.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21523
Many compilers may optimize away the overflow check `msg + l < msg',
where `msg' is a pointer and `l' is an integer, because pointer
overflow is undefined behavior in C.
Use a safe precondition test `l >= eom - msg' instead.

The libbind functions have been separated from the BIND suite as of BIND
9.6.0. Originally from older versions of BIND, they have been continually
maintained and improved but not installed by default with BIND 9. This
standard resolver library contains the same historical functions and
headers included with many Unix operating systems. In fact, most
implementations are based on the same original code.
At present, NetBSD maintains libbind code, now known as "netresolv".
if not already defined. This allows building libc from outside of
lib/libc using a reach-over makefile.
A typical use-case is to build a standard ILP32 version and a COMPAT32
version in a single iteration by building the COMPAT32 version using a
reach-over makefile.
