Worked on making binary-update for dns/libc issue. This took a while.

I noticed that basesrc/lib/libresolv/Makefile used gethnamaddr.c, but from looking at source and resolv.h, it is not needed. So I removed the gethnamaddr objects and that reference from the Makefile and rebuilt and installed. As far as I can tell libresolv works fine -- at least with the Apache binaries (like "ab") that I tried that are linked to it. (I wonder why htpasswd and other non-resolver-needing Apache tools are even built with libresolv?)
