Bug Description

sourceware bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12926 results in calls to getaddrinfo() spinning forever

This bug has been fixed in glibc master and included in 2.21 packages, would it be possible to include a backport in the Trusty stable line (e.g. currently 2.19-0ubuntu6.6)?

My environment:

lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04

ldd --version
(Ubuntu EGLIBC 2.19-0ubuntu6.6) 2.19
