>Description:

	As described in freebsd-questions last week:
	telnet dumps core when trying to connect to
	www.llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.co.uk

>How-To-Repeat:

	[~] edwin@p6>telnet www.llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.co.uk 80
	Trying 194.42.244.17...

	Note: it will *still* crash now on systems which don't have
	MAXHOSTNAMELEN defined in sys/params.h.
