Hi!

If nscount6 used to be > 0 but changed to 0 in some res_init, socket_pf
can be PF_INET6, yet the socket created is PF_INET.  The patch below
from Tomas calls convaddr4to6 only if nssocks[ns] is really PF_INET6
and renames socket_pf variable to match its current usage (i.e. don't
try IPv6 if socket(PF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, 0) already failed once).
Tested with the BZ#4647 testcase.

	[BZ #4647]
	* resolv/res_send.c (send_dg): Rename socket_pf to ipv6_unavail,
	only convaddr4to6 if nssocks[ns] is a PF_INET6 socket.  Patch by
	Tomas Janousek <tjanouse@redhat.com>.
