[PATCH] getaddrinfo does not work without nscd

Hi,

the latest getaddrinfo changes don't work, if no nscd is running.
__nscd_getai will return -1 in this case, which means gaih_inet will
bail out with an error and not fall back to the old code.

I have added a check for the __nss_not_use_nscd_hosts variable, if
nscd should be used or not. And for the first call, I also check in
the error case, if this variable is set or not.

Patch attached.

  Thorsten
