I found and fixed a bug in res_internal that cuases gethostbyaddr to
return truncated host names.  The addressing within the result buffer
was messed up.  Here is the context diff for the fix.

                        result->h_name = bp;
+                       bp += strlen(bp) + 1;
                        iquery_done = 1;
                        break;
                }
