I've attached patches for removing the name compression from the URI
result as well as the tests. This gives a correct result for the real
world test.
Another issue is that it can only return a single answer for a URI
query, since it reaches the first matching URI key in the host file and
stops. The krb5 URI lookup collects all answers from a query and parses
the URIs, sorting the results accordingly, so it would be great to be
able to have a fake hosts file with all of the test URIs listed and not
have to test them one by one.
