Bug description:  gethostbyname() returns server IP for non-existent hosts

Description:
------------
gethostbyname() is returning my own IP address for non-existent domain
names. The expected behavior is that it will return the original name back
to you.

Resolving a real domain returns it's correct IP address.

This issue affects other DNS resoluton commands too... for example,
checkdnsrr('totallyfake456jh47r.com','A') returns TRUE.

Using local resolution commands, the expected result (NXDOMAIN) is
returned:

/:~# host totallyfake456jh47r.com
Host totallyfake456jh47r.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

This may similar (same?) as bug ID <a
href='http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=21487&edit=2'>21487</a>.

PHP configuration: ./configure --with-apxs2=/www/bin/apxs
--with-config-file-path=/etc --with-mcrypt --enable-ftp
--with-gd=/usr/local --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local
--with-png-dir=/usr/local --with-mysql --with-xml --enable-track-vars 

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo gethostbyname('totallyfake456jh47r.com');

Expected result:
----------------
totallyfake456jh47r.com

Actual result:
--------------
66.166.160.74

(my server's own IP)
