apparently. Perhaps a look at the related header files would help.
For instance on Solaris, that's defined in /usr/include/netdb.h,
e.g.,
struct hostent {
char *h_name; /* official name of host */
char **h_aliases; /* alias list */
int h_addrtype; /* host address type */
int h_length; /* length of address */
char **h_addr_list; /* list of addresses from name server */
#define h_addr h_addr_list[0] /* address, for backward compatiblity */
};
Seeing a "#define" there gives the impression that someone might have
decided to break compatibility by removing it on some other system.
