Hi Jinseok,

Hm, it's still supported by all libc on Linux including musl [1] and bionic [2],
and we even test getdomainname [3], but ok, let's move beyond POSIX 2004.

[2] https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic.git/+/refs/heads/main/libc/bionic/ndk_cruft.cpp#288

nit: I removed this before merge (header included by other headers).

Merged this patch only (not the first one).

Kind regards,
