Hi,
During my Summer Of Code 2006 work I've done a lot of refactoring in
libc's nsswitch, which was basically needed to separate libc and
nsswitch modules. One part of that refactoring was reimplementation of
getipnodebyXXX() family of functions through gethostbyXXX() family of
functions. Actually both of these groups of functions had a lot of
duplicated (or very similar) code, so such reimplementation seems to be
quite logic to me.
The patch is here:

It would be great to have it tested (maybe with nsswitch regression
tests - /tools/regresion/lib/libc/nss) and to hear comments about it.
