note 36005 added to function.gethostbyname

As of very recently, Verisign have abused their market position and have entered a wildcard A RR in the .com and .net zone files. This means that any domain that doesn't exist within the zone files will *always* resolve to 64.94.110.11 and not return NXDOMAIN as required by the RFCs. ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> not_a_real_domain.com ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 22357 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 13, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;not_a_real_domain.com.
