*
* In at least some Linux distributions (e.g., RedHat Linux 9), if ADNS
* is used, we appear to hang in host_name_lookup6() in a gethostbyaddr()
* call.
* call (and possibly in other gethostbyaddr() calls), because there's
* a mutex lock held in gethostbyaddr() and it doesn't get released
* if we longjmp out of it.
*
* There's no guarantee that longjmp()ing out of name resolution calls
* will work on *any* platform; OpenBSD got rid of the alarm/longjmp
