Description:
------------
gethostbyaddr does not return an array of hosts. Since 'host' on a
linux/unix based system will return all of them for a specific IP, I
think this should too. If it was intended to be this way, then this
should be a feature request. If this function was intended to mimic the
gnu host command, then this should be classified as a bug.

Reproduce code:
---------------
Only returns one entry. All versions.

Expected result:
----------------
Should return all host names associated with ip as gnu host does. Or an
added feature to return all hosts as an array.

Actual result:
--------------
Single host returned.
