[WIP] Test for CVE-2015-1781 -- glibc gethostbyname_r() buffer overflow with misaligned buffer


The attached tarball contains an out-of-tree test used to validate the
changes for CVE-2015-1781. It requires some complex setup which makes
it unsuitable, at present, for inclusion in the test suite. However,
downstream distributions have requested a reproducer, so I am posting this
publicly.

The test was written by Florian Weimer and reviewed by Carlos O'Donell.

Cheers,
Arjun
