Just wanted to check something..MAXHOSTNAMELEN is defined to be 256,
which is long enough to store the maximum possible DNS name (255
octets) plus the terminating NULL. So there's no need to declare
arrays to be MAXHOSTNAMELEN+1 in size, right?

I'm seeing great inconsistency within our source tree, and I bumped
across this in some changes I was porting from NetBSD.
