Subject: [PATCH v3] man/man5/gai.conf: Document glibc label additions
Date: Mon,  5 Jan 2026 17:41:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260105174106.220924-1-dg@treblig.org> (raw)

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dave@treblig.org>

Glibc includes some extra entries in its default label table
as listed in the gai.conf it distributes:
   https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=posix/gai.conf

Update the EXAMPLES to include the spec default and the version glibc
actually uses.
