The problem was that the 'defdname' field of res_state structure
was not properly initialized in __res_vinit(). This field is used
to store the default domain name, which is normally build from
calling gethostname() (see line 549 of res_init.c).
Unfortunately, in the typical Android case, gethostname() returns
an error (the hostname is configured) and a random stack string is
used later to build the DNS search list (see lines 556+ in res_init.c)
For the sake of illustration, let's say the search list is set to
a random value like 'xWLK'.
The end result is that when trying to result an unknown domain name
(e.g. 'www.ptn'), the query fails then the resolver tries to make a
new query with the DNS search list path(s) appended (e.g. 'www.ptn.xWLK').
The patch simply initializes 'defdname' to an empty string to avoid
this when the net.dns.search system property is not set.

Any of the setuid functions now updates /acct/uid/ with its own tid
before changing users. This is so we can properly account for cpu time
per uid.

Java changes required not to mess up the ordering from bionic will arrive in a
later commit.) In particular, this will give us more correct behavior when on a
6to4 network, in that IPv4 will usually be preferred over 6to4.
Most of RFC 3484 is implemented -- what's not is rule 3 (avoid deprecated
addresses), 4 (prefer home addresses) and 7 (prefer native transport) as they
require low-level access to the kernel routing table via netlink. (glibc also
started out this way, and these rules are primarily useful in pretty obscure
circumstances, so we should be fine for the time being.)
Also, rule 9 (use longest matching prefix) has been modified so it does not try
to sort IPv4 addresses; given current IPv4 addressing practice these rules are
pretty much meaningless. Finally, I've added support for Teredo as a separate
label, with slightly lower preference than 6to4. (Vista puts the preference
below IPv4 by default. glibc puts the preference together with non-tunneled
IPv6.)
Note that this patch removes support for the "sortlist" directive in
resolv.conf; I've never seen it in actual use, it's irrelevant for Android
(since we don't use resolv.conf anyway), and it's not clear how it would be
implemented alongside RFC 3484.
This provides a mini-printf implementation that reduces the
size of the dynamic linker by 25 KB, by preventing the drag of
formatting-related routines from the C library.
Also allow traces to be sent to the log, instead of stdout.
NOTE: You now need to modify Android.mk to enable/disable debug
output.

-- ba_prelink is used to manage non-prelinked libraries, hence ba_nonprelink is
a more appropriate name for it

Only provide an implementation for ARM at the moment, since
it requires specific assembly fragments (the standard syscall
stubs cannot be used because the child returns in a different
stack).
