Description

There's a bug in mdnsd causing it to spin in a tight loop when checking interfaces. I can easily reproduce it just by moving my laptop out of the range of my wifi - as soon as it loses connectivity, mdnsd starts spinning.

The culprit is SetupInterfaceList() in mDNSPosix/mDNSPosix.c, where it just continues processing the same interface over and over again if the interface index is 0.
