[fetchmail-devel] [FYI patch] Fix DNS resolution

[Thomas J. <tho...@in...>]

Hello,

I just upgraded from fetchmail 6.3.9 to fetchmail 6.3.11
and quickly noticed DNS resolution stopped working for me.

This system uses kernel 2.6.30.5 without IPv6 support, bind-9.6.1
and an ancient glibc 2.1.3. I had to revert the recent
"hints.ai_flags |= AI_ADDRCONFIG" change to get it back working.

I've attached my patch just in case someone else is affected, too.
Though I guess this is an issue of the ancient glibc version.

Cheers,
Thomas
