Update.

2004-01-15  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@redhat.com>

	* resolv/resolv.h: Add RES_USEBSTRING.
	* resolv/res_debug.c (p_option): Add handling for RES_USE_INET6,
	RES_ROTATE, RES_NOCHECKNAME, and RES_USEBSTRING.
	* resolv/res_init.c (res_setioptions): Recognize ip6-bytestring.
	* resolv/nss_dns/dns-host.c (_nss_dns_gethostbyaddr_r): Only perform
	bytestring IPv6 lookup with RES_USEBSTRING option is selected.
	Otherwise use the two nibble formats.
