  Restore <rpc/netdb.h> as an installed header. Delete the dummy header
resolv/rpc/netdb.h because inet is not an optional glibc component
(so its <rpc/netdb.h> is always available).

Fixes commit acb527929d0c2b3bb0798472c42ddb3203729708 ("Move
non-deprecated RPC-related functions from sunrpc to inet") in
combination with commit 5500cdba4018ddbda7909bc7f4f9718610b43cf0
("Remove --enable-obsolete-rpc configure flag").

Tested on i686-linux-gnu.  Manually verified that
/usr/include/rpc/netdb.h is installed.

This is ok.  Though, I wonder wheather we actually need rpc/netdb.h,
instead of putting its contents into netdb.h.

There is also a stale comment in resolv/netdb.h.

Andreas.

Yes, we should probably deprecate that header.

Which comment is stale?  This one?

/* This is necessary to make this include file properly replace the
   Sun version.  */

It's old, but probably still technically correct?

Thanks,

what's the status of this?

we have some build breakage without this.

It's blocked, pending release manager approval.
