         problem.

         This wouldn't be such a big problem if older versions wouldn't
         sometimes return EAGAIN on a common failure case. Alas, we can't
         assume that EAGAIN *or* ERANGE means ERANGE for any given version of
         glibc.

         For now, we do that and thus we may call the function repeatedly and
         fail for older glibc versions that return EAGAIN, until we run out
         of buffer size (step_size grows beyond CURL_NAMELOOKUP_SIZE).

         On October 23rd 2003, Dan C dug up more details on the mysteries of
         gethostbyname_r() in glibc:

         In glibc 2.2.5 the interface is different (this has also been
         discovered in glibc 2.1.1-6 as shipped by Redhat 6). What I can't
         explain, is that tests performed on glibc 2.2.4-34 and 2.2.4-32
         (shipped/upgraded by Redhat 7.2) don't show this behavior!

         In this "buggy" version, the return code is -1 on error and 'errno'
         is set to the ERANGE or EAGAIN code. Note that 'errno' is not a
         thread-safe variable.

       point to the same actual data! This have the unfortunate down-side that
       our caching system breaks down horribly. Luckily for us though, AIX 4.3
       and more recent versions have a completely thread-safe libc where all
