/* On linux, glibc will run every lookup through the nss layer.
* That means every lookup goes, by default, through nscd, which acts as a local
* cache.
* Because we run builds in a sandbox, we also remove access to nscd otherwise
* lookups would leak into the sandbox.
*
* But now we have a new problem, we need to make sure the nss_dns backend that
* does the dns lookups when nscd is not available is loaded or available.
*
* We can't make it available without leaking nix's environment, so instead we'll
* load the backend, and configure nss so it does not try to run dns lookups
* through nscd.
*
* This is technically only used for builtins:fetch* functions so we only care
* about dns.
*
* All other platforms are unaffected.
