[Bug nscd/10532] New: nscd cache handlers: Mixed up dataset and dataset->resp offset/length in assert()s and response sending

[pasky at suse dot cz]

The nscd/*cache.c files contain assert()s, writeall() and sendfileall() calls
that invalidly use together &dataset->resp and total where either dataset or
dataset->head.recsize should be used instead one of the components. In the
writeall() and sendfileall() cases, it is unlikely to matter in practice, but
the assertions can fail sometimes without a proper reason.
