Summary:                    [patch] ast_gethostbyname doesn't set h_length if
argument is an IP Address
Description: 
If an IP Address is give as the argument to ast_gethostbyname it
short-circuits and returns the ast_hostent with the provided IP Address,
however it doesn't set the h_length attribute, as it does if the argument
is a hostname. This was discussed with ebroad & mvanbaak on #asterisk-dev
