Yeah, I got the email from Jakub. I wasn't aware that __secure_getenv
was dropped in favor of the new machanism. Is the header listing
supposed to obsolete the __secure_getenv calls? Or is the header listing
used for the most touched parts of the code, and __secure_getenv saved
for obscure cases that don't get called much?

The reason I ask is that it wasn't very apparent since res_query.c still
used __secure_getenv for one env, while the rest of the resolv code
dropped that usage in favor the secure env header. Just looking for some
consistency.
