Ok, then we agree.  I don't personally care whether it's NSCD or a
magical oracle as long as our operating system's gethostbyname()
function actually functions on mobile devices.  (Caching DNS would be
a huge bonus, as other operating systems do this and us not doing so
makes the internet "feel" significantly, visibly slower compared to
them, but that's a separate bug)
