    Specification Base Definitions Issue 6
    Problem Summary The prototype for gethostbyaddr() has not been updated to match SUSv3.
    Problem Text This test expects the prototype for gethostbyaddr() to be the old one
    from SUSv2 where the second argument is size_t. In SUSv3 it changed to
    socklen_t.
    Test Output /tset/CAPI.hdr/misc/netdb/T.netdb 31 Further Information Provided

    Test Description:
    Base Required Conformance
    The function struct hostent *gethostbyaddr(const void *addr, size_t
    len, int type) shall be declared with the correct prototype in
    netdb.h.
