Subject: [PATCH] Commit patch based on one from John L. Allen to fix "forward
 name lookup failed" on AIX 4.3.3.

When doing an name->addr lookup on the client address, there's no
point including the service name, because it can't be spoofed and it
apparently causes trouble when not present in /etc/services.
