Such a tool would certainly be useful. However, I have serveral
questions regarding the implementation:

1. You use gethostbyname2, which is a glibc extension and is not
available on other systems. I'd suggest to use getaddrinfo instead.

2. The code handles only AF_INET and AF_INET6 families. If another
family is encountered, its behavior is uncertain.

3. The code declares variables within a code block.

Sergey
