Bug#659504: libc-bin: gai.conf: manpage needs to be updated, missing scopev4



Package: libc-bin
Version: 2.11.3-2
Severity: minor

(verified to also apply to 2.13-26)

Manpage gai.conf(5) is missing the description of scopev4, which makes it
even more painful to deal with RFC3484 and gai.conf...

I've found a slightly improved manpage here:
http://linux.die.net/man/5/gai.conf

I am not sure which distro is it from, probably Fedora or RHEL.

BTW: to whomever fixed Debian's default gai.conf to at least get things
right a LOT better than straight RFC3484, *THANK YOU*!
