I just got the most recent CVS sources, and they *still*
don't work on my system. gdb reveals that in process-unix.c,
the (recent) change to the canonicalize_host_name function
to use getaddrinfo() appears to be the culprit.
getaddrinfo() just seems to hang on my system - at least
with the set of parameters that are passed to it by XEmacs.
And *I* don't have any docs for it either (i.e. no man
pages & it isn't in the libc info [I'm using vanilla RedHat
6.0, with very little extra installed]).
Anyone else have this problem? (It could be my fault - I've
got a caching named set up, with my ISP's DNS set up as a
forwarder, and a zone for the small LAN we've got at home...
however, it works if I #undef HAVE_GETADDRINFO in s/linux.h,
and all the other software I have seems to work OK).
Kind regards,
Alastair.
