    res_ninit: Update comment
    
    Since commit e66e7419a6f58200eec6941b14e2dcff9875cc6c (Actually make
    it possible to user the default name server.), the default is
    INADDR_LOOPBACK, not INADDR_ANY.

- * An interrim version of this code (BIND 4.9, pre-4.4BSD) used 127.0.0.1
- * rather than INADDR_ANY ("0.0.0.0") as the default name server address
- * since it was noted that INADDR_ANY actually meant ``the first interface
- * you "ifconfig"'d at boot time'' and if this was a SLIP or PPP interface,
- * it had to be "up" in order for you to reach your own name server.  It
- * was later decided that since the recommended practice is to always
- * install local static routes through 127.0.0.1 for all your network
- * interfaces, that we could solve this problem without a code change.
- *
- * The configuration file should always be used, since it is the only way
- * to specify a default domain.  If you are running a server on your local
- * machine, you should say "nameserver 0.0.0.0" or "nameserver 127.0.0.1"
