Hi!
_nss_dns_gethostbyname* trusts getanswer_r to set *errnop and *h_errnop
right (and from what I can see, at least for the too small buffer case
it does the right thing), but _nss_dns_gethostbyaddr2_r will overwrite
anything getanswer_r put into those variables with whatever h_errno/errno
contain (which probably isn't related to the current error).
I've tested it fixes the 258 PTR records getnameinfo query in BZ, though
haven't done much testing beyond that.

overwrite *h_errnop/*errnop values from getanswer_r in case of
failure.
