This exposes an interesting thing that we need. Adding this exposes a
missing feature in resolv_wrapper, because it now can no longer find
short names, as it needs to implement the 'search' keyword.

I looked into why another improbable case worked (looking for a
workaround), and noticed this bug:
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11477
Once we fix that, we will need to fix
torture/rpc/lsa.c:check_pw_with_krb5(), as it relies on this bug (or
run that test against $SERVER_IP).
In the meantime, I'm running another autobuild to see how far we get
when using nss_wrapper and resolv_wrapper.
Thanks,
