From: Antonio Quartulli <anto...@mandelbit.com> With the introduction of multisocket, we need to transfer the AI family of the bound address to the socket, as it may differ from what was set globally.
However, this operation makes sense only when getaddrinfo() for bind is performed on a non-empty hostname. An empty hostname (ANY) may return AF_INET which will break following connection attempts to v6 only remotes.
