I can confirm something very wrong is going on.

I cvsuped this morning and installed 4.7RC. Suddenly trying to resolve
domain names fails when I specify IPv4 in ssh. This worked fine prior
to the upgrade.

% ssh -4 ptavv.es.net
ssh: ptavv.es.net: Non-recoverable failure in name resolution

The nameserver has not changed and this command worked fine
yesterday. If I leave off the -4 (allowing the system to try to
connect with IPv6), it works, even though the remote system is not
reachable with IPv6 an has no AAAA record.

I have not looked at how the resolver calls differ between default and
-4 in ssh, but something is broken! Previous update was last Saturday
morning.
