: errno isn't meaningful after a call to gethostbyname, you should look at
: h_errno instead:
Ah.
: fprintf (stderr, "Could NOT get host by name (localhost): %d <%s>\n",

``Could NOT get host by name (localhost): 1 <Unknown host>''
Yes, so it does.

: I have no w95, only w98 SE. Works for me:
:
: $ ./tghbn
: Could get a host by name (localhost)
No surprises there...

:
: 127.0.0.1 localhost
Any host. (That line is already in my hosts-file.)

I just tried it. It doesn't help.
Oh, I just found a build of September 15, and it shows the failure,
so the change should be somewhere between Sep 2 and then.
Also: Did you notice it works when invoked from strace or DOS command?
Could this have to do with env-vars?
Any other things I should try/report?
L8r,
Buzz.
