Description Wout Decré 2015-03-16 15:23:37 UTC 
Using ssh to connect to a host defined in /etc/hosts on a FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE i386 machine with a missing /etc/resolv.conf file results in a segmentation fault.

Simply creating (an empty) resolv.conf file fixes the problem.

On a amd64 machine, ssh works as expected with or without the resolv.conf file.
Comment 1 Wout Decré 2015-03-20 15:45:40 UTC 
The segmentation fault is caused by ldns:

(gdb) bt full

	usize = <value optimized out>
#1  0x2814e90d in ldns_resolver_deep_free (res=0x28c4556c)

Same if the host is not in /etc/hosts . 10.2-PRERELEASE i386.
Comment 3 Wout Decré 2016-10-18 20:40:16 UTC 
This is fixed with r294332, cannot seem to reproduce on 10.3-RELEASE i386 nor 11-RELEASE i386. Thanks
