Uli and Michael,

this patch is broken:

       * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/param.h (MAXHOSTNAMELEN): Define.
        Patches by Michael Keezer <mkeezer@redhat.com>.

I now get tons of these warnings:

In file included from ../sunrpc/rpc/types.h:67,
                 from ../include/rpc/types.h:1,
                 from /builds/glibc/20000912-main/sunrpc/rpc-proto.c:1:
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/param.h:67:26: warning: "MAXHOSTNAMELEN" redefined
/usr/include/asm/param.h:18:8: warning: this is the location of the previous definition

Michael, what's the reason for this patch?  Are you sure that this
patch is needed for linux - and not only for aix as all your other
patches?

I propose to revert the patch,
Andreas
