Ticket <URL: https://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8881 >
On NixOS we started to see segfaults when executing `gsasl` tests in our build
infrastructure that origin in the krb5 library. The particular test that
failed was the `old-simple` test with the following stack trace:

After looking at the implementation of `k5_primary_domain` it became
obvious that the result of the res_ninit(3) call is never validated. The
call doesn't fail but the `res_state` structure doesn't seem to be fully
populated as expected. At least `h.dnsrch[0]` is NULL leading to
`strdup` segfaulting the application.
