[Olsr-dev] Nameservice patch (add mid entries, seeking comments)

[Hannes Gredler]

added to HEAD of CVS and mercurial. - tx, /hannes

> I developed a patch against the nameservice plugin to also include known
> MID entries in the hosts file. We're using this modification since
> v0.4.8 of OLSRd in our Freifunk Leipzig Firmware without any problems
> observed (so far) ;)
> 
> I changed the write_hosts_file() function to lookup known MIDs for every
> IP/hostname pair that's about to be written to the hosts file. Every MID
> will be written as additional hostname "midX.hostname.domain" to the file.

> Here's an excerpt from my /etc/hosts generated by the patched
