Description Roland McGrath 2005-02-26 01:16:28 UTC 
This trunk change is needed on the 2.3 branch.

2005-02-21  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* nscd/nscd_gethst_r.c (nscd_gethst_r): Set *h_errnop to
	NETDB_INTERNAL if buffer is too small.

	* nscd/hstcache.c (INCR): Remove.
	(addhstbyX): Double buflen in each iteration rather than add INCR.
	* nscd/grpcache.c: Likewise.
	* nscd/pwdcache.c: Likewise.
