* manual/socket.texi (Host Names): Remove statement that h_errno
needs to be declared since this isn't true anymore.
Closes PR libc/1138.

* config.h.in: Add __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION.
fails, you can find out the reason by looking at the value of the
variable @code{h_errno}. (It would be cleaner design for these
functions to set @code{errno}, but use of @code{h_errno} is compatible
-with other systems.) Before using @code{h_errno}, you must declare it
-like this:
-
-@smallexample
-extern int h_errno;
-@end smallexample
+with other systems.)
Here are the error codes that you may find in @code{h_errno}:
/* This file must not contain any C code. At least it must be protected
to allow using the file also in assembler files. */
-/* XXX For testing. */
-#define __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION 131584
-
#ifndef __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION
/* We assume the worst; all kernels should be supported. */
# define __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION 0
