The gethostbyname(3) man page should first and foremost list that
the source of the data comes from the NSS plugins. I accept
that the man page is intentionally trying to be vague because
these things are not guaranteed anywhere, the truth is far
more mundane and "default" here IMO applies to a normal glibc
installation on Linux, and the fallback is always a localhost
nameserver.

[Part of a general change to remove cruft from this page.]
Much of the detail on hardware specifics in this page dates
from the 20th century. (The last major update to this page was in
man-pages-1.14!) It's hugely out of date now (many of these
devices disappeared from the kernel years ago.)
Here, we remove some ancient x86 options.

[Part of a general change to remove cruft from this page.]
Much of the detail on device-driver specifics in this page dates
from the 20th century. (The last major update to this page was in
man-pages-1.14!) It's hugely out of date now (many of these
devices disappeared from the kernel years ago.) Arguably, this
kind of detail should never have been placed in a man page to
begin with, since devices come and go. Remove such text, and
where appropriate and possible add pointers to files in the
kernel Documentation/ directory.
