Cause:
The top-level Makefile in 4.3/lib/libc passes "DEFS" which then
overrides the DEFS declaration in libc/net/Makefile.
Fix:
I don't know yet. It will take a lot of looking into, which I certainly
don't have the time for. Have fun, Ez.

Subject: Dynamic name assignment
Well, a little testing shows that the programs /etc/athena/netconfig
and /etc/named in the release (both platforms) are broken. The
binaries in the release don't match the sources in the build trees
(they seem to have been compiled without the -DEBUG and
-DALLOW_UPDATES defines, even though these are in the Makefiles).
Building from that set of sources on my workstation works. I don't
know how they were originally built, but we need to fix the release to
replace these two binaries and /lib/libc.a to update the programs and
the resolver library with one that matches the source code I gave
Release Engineering back in October.
