When 'w' finds an IP address in the ut_host field, it attempts to do
a gethostbyname() on it.  That can take a long time...  (especially
if the reason the IP address is in there in the first place is because
login/rlogind/telnetd couldn't find it either....)
This patch reduces the gethostbyaddr lookup time to 2 seconds, the idea being
that if the local nameserver knows the answer, it'll answer within that time,
otherwise we dont care... :-)
This change doesn't do anything about whether or not w should do this in the
first place, but at least it will make the current behavior less painful.
