Resolver fix


Here's the patch I promised.  The cast from (struct __sockaddr_in *)
to (struct sockaddr_in *) in res_nsend should be kosher.  Only the
members that are present in both structures are referenced in sock_eq.

The size of `_res' is now back to 512 bytes on the x86.  The other
32-bit systems are probably also OK.  I'm not so sure about the 64-bit
systems though.  I think everything should fit exactly into the 72
bytes padding at the end of the glibc 2.1 `struct __res_state'.  We
might need to adjust the size of the padding in the glibc 2.2 _res._u
union though.  Could the alpha and sparc64 maintainers check please.

	Fix problems with `struct __res_state' getting too big.
	* resolv/resolv.h (struct __sockaddr_in): New definition.
	(struct __res_state): Use __sockaddr_in instead of sockaddr_in in
	the private parts of the structure to save some space.
	* resolv/res_send.c (res_nsend): Cast &EXT(statp).nsaddrs[ns] to
	(struct sockaddr_in *) in call to sock_eq.
	Use memcpy to copy statp->nsaddr_list[ns] to &EXT(statp).nsaddrs[ns].
