Description: ------------ gethostbyaddr() function does not work properly. At least not on my Windows XP platform. This is with both versions 5.2.6 and with the latest snapshot 5.2.7RC4. This function does work properly in version 5.3alpha however, I cannot use that version due to other compatibility issues.
