   4 Subject: [PATCH] Fix use-after-free bug in __dns_lookup.
   5
   6 If the type of the first answer does not match with the requested type,
   7 then the dotted name will be freed. If there are no further answers in
   8 the DNS reply, this pointer will be used later on in the same function.
   9 Additionally it is passed to the caller, and may cause strange behaviour.
  10
  11 For example, the following busybox commands are triggering a segmentation
  12 fault with uClibc 0.9.30.x
  13
  14   - nslookup ipv6.google.com
  15   - ping ipv6.google.com
  16   - wget http//ipv6.google.com/
