I'm not sure what this means for fixing the problem, but getaddrinfo is a
new call that supports both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses. It's possible that you're
having problems trying to resolve the hostname into an IPv6 address. It's had
to tell without knowing the contents of the last 2 parameters to getaddrinfo.
