[Bug nscd/6812] New: nscd doesn't handle temporary resolver errors properly


When getnameinfo() gets temporary error from nss, it should return temporary
error instead of permanent error to the application. This has already been
solved by following patch for cases without nscd running: 

http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/inet/getnameinfo.c.diff?r1=1.34&r2=1.35&cvsroot=glibc&f=h

However, with nscd it still doesn't return proper value. We hit this with 2.4
first and verified that it still exists in 2.8. I have working fix for 2.4 and
unverified fix for current CVS (underlying code is a bit different). I'll attach
it in this bug.
