>Description:
	NIS database maintenance code does not support /etc/hosts with
	mutiple address for a single host.  this is rather important for
	IPv4/v6 dual stack database, like:
--
127.0.0.1	localhost
::1		localhost
--
	however, it is not IPv6 problem.  this affects IPv4-only people too.

>How-To-Repeat:
	put the following entry into /etc/hosts.
--
127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.0.2	localhost
--
	generate NIS database (cd /var/yp; make).
	look into /var/yp/mydomain/hosts.byname.db.  you will see the following
	entry:

key = "localhost"
value = "127.0.0.1 localhost"

	on call to yp_match() from lib/libc/net/getadrinfo.c or
	lib/libc/net/gethnamaddr.c, we will lookup the the above entry,
	and will not be able to get 127.0.0.2.

>Fix:
	fix usr.sbin/ypserv/ypinit/Makefile.yp so that it would generate
	the following mapping into hosts.byname.
	libc functions can take care of multi-line entry.

key = "localhost"
value = "127.0.0.1 localhost\n127.0.0.2 localhost"
