  Branch:      lib/libc/net  RELENG_2_2
  Modified:    lib/libc/net  Makefile.inc
  Added:       lib/libc/net  res_stubs.c
  Log:
  Provide weak references to functions that will replace certain names in
  the 4.9.4-P1 resolver that we have in libc as of 2.2 and current 3.0.
  
  When 4.9.5-P1 is imported, certain well known functions will "go away"
  and be replaced by functions under new names.. which just happen to be
  what these weak references point to.
  
  The result should be that while 2.2 and 3.0 keep using libc.so.3.0, they
  should be binary compatable even though they have a different version of
  the resolver in their libc's.  Of course, if the new resolver makes it into
  2.2-RELEASE (which it probably should if it's stable), then this is
  irrelevant. :-)
