hello, folks.

yesterday I experienced an issue while compiling freeradius-client. thankfully, it was a known one, a bit old one btw: http://lists.cistron.nl/pipermail/freeradius-devel/2008-September/012581.html

so, I cloned the alan's github repo and created a new configure flag, which allows the user to choose what implementation of gethostby[addr,name] to use.

it worked for me, and solved my problem. I'm not sure if it's the best approach to fix the issue, though. as I'm new in this software, maybe you guys have a better solution. I want to hear from you. the code is here: https://github.com/alandekok/freeradius-client/pull/3

btw: forking and doing pull requests on github is the right way of proposing patches?

thanks for your attention,

Jonh Wendell
