[Bug classpath/27828] New: Overly aggressive use of InetAddress.getHostName()

[green at redhat dot com]

One of the InetSocketAddress constructors includes...

    this.hostname = addr.getHostName();

This seems overly aggressive.  In comparing azureus log files from Sun and gcj
runs, it looks like Sun's libraries take a lazy approach to getting the
hostname.
I propose that we simply delete that line and modify
InetSocketAddress.getHostName() to call addr.getHostName() if not already set
(like in InetAddress).  InetSocketAddress.toString would have to be modified as
well (similar to InetAddress.toString).

This should eliminate many useless reverse-DNS requests in applications like
azureus.
