NAME
       dns_name6 - look up host name

SYNTAX
       #include <dns.h>

       int dns_name6(stralloc* out,const char* ip[16]);

DESCRIPTION
       dns_name6  looks up the domain name for the 16-byte IPv6 address in ip.
       It puts the (first) domain name into out and returns 0. If the relevant
       ip6.arpa	 domain does not exist in DNS, or has no PTR records, out will
       be empty.

       If dns_name6 has trouble with the DNS lookup or runs out of memory,  it
       returns -1, setting errno appropriately. It may or may not change out.
