On Solaris 11-2011, I'm getting a gcc warning at test-sethostname1.c:23. Which
means, the problem with the declaration's parametere types is not fixed on this
version of Solaris. I'm fixing the doc:


2011-12-04  Bruno Haible  <address@hidden>

        sethostname: Fix documentation.
        * doc/glibc-functions/sethostname.texi: Move the Solaris problem to the
        "not fixed" section.
