Title:
  libc getaddrinfo crashes if /etc/hosts has very long lines

Status in The GNU C Library:
  Fix Released
Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I'm using the latest SVN version of aMSN, compiled directly from source. When running it once, all is fine and dandy; but if I run it again whenever another instance of the program is running, it will segfault.
  I reported it to the aMSN team (see http://www.amsn-project.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6662), and they claim the error is not within their code - apparently the culprit is a buggy version of libc. So I'm reporting it here without specifying the package.

  I've attached a full backtrace obtained on GDB.
