I just tested it with:
PHP Version 5.2.1RC4-dev Build Date:Jan 25 2007 12:17:41
And again it doesn't work with PHP-CGI, but it works with command line
(Apache module not tested with this version).
Same result:
bool(false)

Description:
------------
gethostbynamel always returns false, instead of giving useful results.
This is however only the case when I use PHP as CGI. gethostbynamel
works as expected when I use PHP as Apache module and also when I use
it from the command line, but not when I use it as CGI.
If this behaviour of gethostbynamel is intended or unavoidable, it
should be mentioned in the manual for gethostbynamel.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(gethostbynamel("localhost"));
?>
Expected result:
----------------
List of addresses
Actual result:
--------------
FALSE
