Jonas 'Sortie' Termansen f24d859c80 Fix using HOST_NOT_FOUND instead of EAI_NONAME.
HOST_NOT_FOUND is a gethostbyname(3) error condition rather than a
getaddrinfo(3) error condition and cannot be passed to net_gethosterror
as documented as it calls gai_strerror(3). EAI_NONAME is the appropriate
similar error condition as standardized by POSIX for getaddrinfo(3).
