Hi!

It seems at least some Solaris ypserv's put records with name (without
/proto) as keys into services.byservicename map, which is obviously better
than trying /tcp, /udp and fallback.  Fallback is still needed, as aliases
are not put into the database without /proto (and for Linux ypserv
which doesn't put them in).
Attached is a glibc patch plus ypserv patch to make Linux ypserv behave like
Solaris (and fix a bug in it which would trim any digits from protocol's
name).

	Jakub
