+commit 2905358524c0835311501bad04c521479b0525ff
+Author: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com>
+Date:   Thu Nov 12 14:16:12 2009 -0500
+
+    Remove the AI_ADDRCONFIG hint flag to getaddrinfo() when it's
+    call by nfsd to set up the file descriptors that are
+    sent to the kernel. The flag causes the getaddrinfo()
+    to fail, with EAI_NONAME, when there is not a non-loopback
+    network interface configured.
