DNS in stage1

["Andrew Lusk" <andrew.lusk@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm having trouble with DNS during stage1.  loader can use DNS just
fine - but my test program that I want running alongside loader can't
(it gets EAI_NODATA from getaddrinfo).  I think it might have something
to do with the "just so you know, since you're statically linking and
using getaddrinfo, you'll still need the libraries you're building with
present when you actually run this" warnings I get when I build my
program (or even ping, which also fails in the same way while loader
succeeds).

So I tried to build loader and see if it got those warnings, but I
can't figure out how to build a static loader without tweaking the
makefiles myself (I'm sure there's a more kosher way since it's meant
to be built statically).

Anyone have any insight?

My code that doesn't work with DNS is called when loader tries to grab the kickstart file (it's a proxy, so I have ks=http://127.0.0.1:8080/foo/ks.cfg, and my code attempts to resolve some DNS when the client connects) so I know that the network is up at that point.

Thanks!
