548040 - getai test fails if you provide no command line arguments

Status: NEW

(NSPR :: NSPR, defect)

Description

[Ben Combee (:bcombee)]

In testing on Android, I tried running the getai test not knowing that you had to provide a name on the command line.  It failed with a segfault inside the OS code due to no parameter checking in the gethostbyname call.

This test should provide an error message  when the hostname is NULL or use a default known hostname.

Yes, we can use www.mozilla.org as the default hostname.  We do that
in the gethost.c test (where we use mcom.com as the default hostname):
