> I googled a bit and my hunch is that getaddrinfo returns multiple IPv6
addresses and some of them are invalid for some reason. I added some debug
output to the IPv6 test in 2cdf5dd.
Thank you for the attempt. I think the problems are elsewhere, however.
I've never done any socket programming, but based on reading the man
pages, it looks like the call to getaddrinfo() is wrong in the cases where
the result is going to be passed to bind. According to the man page,
AI_PASSIVE should be set in those cases. I've attached a patch to the
tests to fix that.
That patch leads to new failures in tests 5 and 6 in the returned strings.
I now suspect the those tests were wrong as well, but I'd appreciate
confirmation from someone who actually knows anything about socket
programming.
With my patch applied, and ignoring the errors from the "expected" names
in tests 5 and 6, I still get failures on both Solaris 8 and 10 at the
connect() stage:
{{{
$ ./parrot t/pmc/socket_ipv6.t

}}}
At this point I'm *way* beyond my sphere of knowledge, so I have no idea
what to do next.
