This function is only available in the headers if unconditionally

try loading these functions dynamically at runtime on windows in

straightforward.
On mingw32, this function isn't visible by default, while it is
on mingw64 (on both 32 and 64 bit).
So why not make XP the baseline and simplify this?
That would require adding an explicit -D_WIN32_WINNT=0x500 in our
configure script, which isn't all too pretty. The getaddrinfo fallbacks in
general has to be kept anyway (for other OSes), so there's not much to be
gained in code simplicity by bumping this, and mingw64 (which most use
these days, afaik) has that as default anyway.
